Accredited Christian Colleges That Offer Distance Degrees

Although many Christian colleges offer distance education degrees, finding the right program in your area of interest can be a challenge. As you search for the right distance learning program, the most important consideration on your list should be whether the school is accredited by a regional accrediting association recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. Regional accreditation status is key if you want to earn transferable credits and a degree that is recognized by both public and private sector employers.
