Once we've reviewed your application and resume and determined that you will be moving to the next step of the process, we'll reach out to request the following items:
- Copies of transcripts from all higher education institutions (must be from a regionally accredited school). During preliminary interviews, we may photocopy these transcripts. However, as your candidacy formalizes, we'll need official transcripts.
- A 3-5-page excerpt of a paper you completed for any graduate-level work.
- A written expression of your philosophy of Christian Higher Education.
- Two letters of reference, including one pastoral reference, if available. (E.g. If you attend a mega church, you may or may not know the senior pastor, so it is acceptable to ask any minister familiar with your faith to write a letter of reference for you.)
- Completion of the Faculty Application Survey: Faith and Mission Alignment document
Additionally, for candidates applying for Church Ministries positions: 1) an audio recording of an average sermon or classroom presentation, and 2) a statement from the district secretary confirming your credential is in good standing if you are a credentialed minister.
