"Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth." 2Timothy 2:15

The goal of taking courses at Cornerstone University is to achieve an understanding of the Bible that matches what you would find in a Christian college without the expense of a formal college campus.  Classes meet on Thursday evenings, 6:30-8:00 p.m. at Cornerstone.  Each course lasts approximately seven weeks.

These four tracks comprise the four years of classes at Cornerstone and can be taken in any order. Each of these tracks is comprised of five individual classes, each of which lasts for seven weeks. These classes cover a wide variety of topics, assuring that the graduate will finish the program with a wealth of information.

While the goal of the program is to finish all four tracks, certificates of completion will be issued at the conclusion of each individual track. Thus, the student completing the whole program will have four certificates – one for each of the four tracks.
