Cornerstone

A 15-week session that affords the student a total immersion experience in ministry. Intense in-class instruction augmented by genuine “in the community” ministry make this program the flagship of our training programs. It runs once a year in the fall. The program provides the perfect cornerstone for building a Christ-centered, life-long personal ministry.

IMPORTANT PROGRAM INFORMATION

ARISE is not an accredited school. Therefore, we cannot guarantee college/university credit for the completion of the Cornerstone Program. ARISE is able to issue a transcript; however, it is at the discretion of each college/university whether or not the credits will be accepted. Currently, Andrews University is the only university that is officially partnering with us to accept the completion of the Cornerstone Program as transfer credits. Attendees must contact Andrews University for details, including credit amount.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Since ARISE is not an accredited school, students attending the Cornerstone Program are not legally “students” and thus are not eligible to receive a student visa such as an I-20. International attendees typically apply for a visitors or tourist visa, such as a B-1 or B-2. Prospective attendees will need to contact their country’s immigration office for details. ARISE will provide international attendees with an official invitation letter, which includes dates, housing and address, and program description at the time of acceptance. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
