Full-time Study

Full-time study allows you the benefit of immersing yourself in the coursework, with study from Biblical and practical subjects complementing each other. In addition full time study enables you to fully participate in the College community. Full-time students are involved in the weekly Chapel services and prayer triplets, Partnership Mission, Reachout and can take advantage of the many visiting speakers and missionaries.

Morling College recommends face-to-face attendance at four lectures per week (12hrs) for full time study. In addition it is recommended that students allow approximately 6 hours of study per subject. From second year onwards students are encouraged to be actively involved in some form of ministry.

Please see the Timetable for a full list of subjects in 2008.
