South Georgia College of Theology Administrative Policies

 

Our Program Basis

We have abbreviated our requirements for graduate and postgraduate degrees in an effort to hold the tuition to a minimum and allow busy ministers, and working students every opportunity for higher Spirit filled, prophetic, Christian education.
It is the desire of SGCT to mix the Word with the Spirit out of a deep well of the rich prophetic heritage that SGCT offers.
 

Staff & Faculty

We are blessed to have a rich base of faculty and staff. From the Director to the professors you will find individuals who have continue to study to show themselves approved, individuals of integrity and individuals willing to serve and assist you.
They are dedicated to teach and reach the world with the gospel and expand the Kingdom through quality Bible education.

The SGCT admits students of all race, color national and ethnic origin with all rights, privileges, programs and activates made available to students of SGCT.

Statement Standards
