Certificate Information and Fees
This Ministry Wife Certificate is designed for NOBTS campus and extension center student wives as well as other ministry wives. Wives of currently-enrolled NOBTS students can enroll in and register for these courses free of charge. Other ministry wives whose husbands are not currently attending NOBTS will pay fees and hourly tuition rates. All students will be responsible for textbook costs.
The requirements for the certificate include "The Minister's Wife" and seven elective courses. The Minister's Wife course is offered every fall on campus as well as in a 2-and-a-half-day workshop format during Red Carpet Week in May.
