Logos Christian College

What Logos Christian College does

Logos Christian College, operating under the legal name Logos University, Inc., is a privately held, Florida-incorporated online Bible college and seminary offering theological degree programs spanning from certificate through doctoral levels. The institution was formed from the merger of several small Bible schools and institutes dating to 1977, transitioned into degree-granting status in 1994, and restructured to its current University model in April 2014. It is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, with a mailing address in Ocala, and serves students in 33+ countries through a custom learning management system built on Edvance360 technology, supporting live, DVD, and fully online coursework delivery.

The product catalog includes five certificate programs, six Associate of Arts and six Bachelor of Arts concentrations, six Master of Arts concentrations plus the Master of Theology (Th.M.) and Master of Divinity (M.Div.), six Doctor of Ministry concentrations, and four advanced doctoral programs (Doctor of Christian Counseling, Doctor of Christian Education, Doctor of Theology, and Doctor of Philosophy). Tuition is structured as pay-as-you-go unit pricing at $150/credit hour (undergraduate), $175/credit hour (graduate), and $300/course (certificate), with a stated "debt-free graduation" value proposition, plus 10% scholarships for returning students, ordained ministers, and U.S. military veterans. Life-experience credits (up to 30 credits via BBKE and LEMA assessments) and customizable degree programs differentiate the offering.

The business model combines direct B2C enrollment (driven by admissions counselors, a toll-free phone line, and an online application) with a church affiliate partnership program under which partner churches and organizations establish Schools of Ministry, training centers, and internships, choosing among live, DVD, or online delivery formats and receiving tuition revenue sharing. The affiliate network is reported to span 32 nations and 200+ training centers. Marketing is conducted through Facebook (50,000+ followers), Twitter, blog content, an annual international conference and graduation in Jacksonville, and word-of-mouth through a 50,000+ alumni network. Accreditations include the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), the International Association of Bible Colleges and Seminaries (IABCS), and authorization by the Florida State Board of Independent Colleges and Universities / Commission for Independent Education (CIE).
