| Description | African Christian College has been educating students for over 50 years. We believe in a transformed continent through the power of God and well-equipped leaders. Our students are from eSwatini, South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda. Our Bachelor of Theology programme is completed in four years and is fully residential in the Kingdom of eSwatini (formerly Swaziland). All students learn core theology, ministry, and other subjects such as entrepreneurship to prepare them for academic excellence, Christian character, servant leadership, global awareness, and personal resourcefulness. This programme is specifically to develop transformational leaders for the church and Kingdom. Our Tuition Assurance programme makes our programme affordable for anyone! Students work in on-campus jobs in exchange for their tuition, accommodation, and catering fees. Students live and are provided meals on campus year-round, but they must work minimum hours to receive these Work-Study scholarships. Our BTh is fully accredited by the Eswatini Higher Education Council (ESHEC) and by the Association for Christian Theological Education in Africa (ACTEA). |
