Olivet carries on a sustained program of self-study in the belief that improvement is a continuous process. Its faculty is competent for the duties assigned. An effort is made to bring a genuine academic challenge to every student. This is done with the conviction that the impact of Christian lives can be increased by excellence of scholarship, logical thought, and effectiveness in communication. The University seeks through its curriculum, co-curricular activities, and campus citizenship to assure the priority of academic discipline and achievement.
A genuine encounter with the traditional liberal arts is felt to be the best way to assure the development of the whole person and to give balance in making the judgments required in a world of rapid change. Accordingly, Olivet Nazarene University offers the student a variety of opportunities for growth according to his or her aptitude and interests. These opportunities are presented through curriculum, co-curricular activities, field experiences, and internships. Academic advisors are ready to assist the student in planning his or her program, but the student has primary responsibility for meeting requirements for graduation, licensing, certification, and graduate school admission.
Semester Calendar and Credit Hours
The University calendar is built on two semesters of 15 weeks for residential programs. Graduate and Continuing Studies programs use terms of 12 or 16 weeks for undergraduate and graduate programs respectively.
The University assigns credit hours in accordance with federal regulations (CFR 34 §600.2). For classroom‐based academic courses, ONU uses the standard Carnegie unit to assign credit hour equivalents. One semester hour is equivalent to, at a minimum, 50 minutes of class time and two hours of student work outside of the class during a 15‐week semester (750 minutes and 1,800 minutes respectively). A typical three credit hour course, therefore, will meet for 150 minutes per week for 15 weeks for 37.50 hours of direct faculty instruction and 90 hours of out‐of‐class work. Classroom‐based courses that meet in an accelerated format must meet the same standards (750 minutes of direct instruction and 1,800 minutes of student preparation per credit hour).
When direct instruction is not the primary mode of learning (e.g., laboratory work, internships, practica, studio work) or when the delivery method is online or hybrid, an equivalent amount of work is required. The determination is made based on documented learning objectives, expected learning outcomes, and student workload expectations, and assumes a specified amount of academically engaged time. For more details, please contact the Office of the Registrar.

General Education Basic Requirements
In order to provide the student with a broad base of experience and knowledge in the various fields of human activity, and to carry out the general aims of Christian education as outlined in the institutional objectives, special courses have been selected or developed to meet the needs of students in all degree curricula. In certain fields of study, the students are required to select from among several courses according to their interests or plans for future study.
Courses numbered in the 100s and 200s should normally be completed during the freshman or sophomore years. General education courses numbered 300 or above will normally be completed during the last two years of study. See “Classification ”. Students planning a program of Teacher Education should consult special instructions related to general education in the School of Education section of the Catalog.
General Education Requirements: Bachelor’s Degrees
The Christian liberal arts tradition is founded on the belief that “all truth is God’s truth” and that education aims at comprehensive literacy, developing in students the ability to communicate and interpret within the cultural, natural, and spiritual spheres that comprise human life.
The general education curriculum at Olivet Nazarene University is organized around the four overlapping spheres of spiritual literacy and stewardship, scientific literacy, cultural literacy, and communication literacy. Together, these spheres provide a foundation for a Christian liberal arts education to develop mature and knowledgeable
citizens who can provide moral and spiritual leadership in today’s world.
- Spiritual Literacy and Stewardship
An educated person in a Christian context understands the sources, content, and richness of the Christian faith and engages in practices that promote physical, emotional, and spiritual health and wholeness.
- Christianity (9)
- Stewardship (2-3)*
- Scientific Literacy
An educated person possesses the knowledge and skills to interpret the biological and physical world.
- Math (3)
- Natural Sciences (one must be lab) [6-8]*
- One course in biological science………………………………………………. 3-4
- One course in physical science…………………………………………………. 3-4
- Cultural Literacy
An educated person is informed by the scientific and historical study of persons, society, and culture; is conversant in various human endeavors and expressions; and appreciates the diversity of cultures throughout the world.
- Humanities*……………………………………………………………………………….. 6
- HIST 200 - Western Civilization …………………………………………………… 3
- Social Sciences*…………………………………………………………………………… 3
- Intercultural Understanding*……………………………………………………….. 0-8
- Communication Literacy

Students completing an Associate of Arts degree are not required to take the following: CMIN 310 , Stewardship, Intercultural Understanding.
COLLEGE WRITING COMPETENCY AND PLACEMENT
A minimal competency level is required in writing. Writing course placement has been determined by the English department and is based on the ACT English sub-score or SAT ERW score. Place students in the writing course sequence according to the following criteria:
* See General Education Approved Courses list at https://www.olivet.edu/registrar
NOTES:
† Either BLIT 305 or BLIT 310 substitute for the BLIT 210 requirement for all majors in the School of Theology and Christian Ministry.
**If required to take ENGL-109, a student may not enroll in ENGL 207/208/209/210 until having passed ENGL 109 with a grade of “C-” or above. Each department specifies the College Writing II course to be taken by its majors. Engineering majors satisfy the College Writing II requirement with ENGR 401. Students with an ACT English of 26 or higher or an SAT ERW of 620 or higher are exempt from ENGL 109.
***MATH 111 does not meet the mathematics requirement unless MATH 112 is also satisfactorily completed.
Specialization for Bachelor’s Degree Programs
Before admission to junior standing, the student will choose an area of specialization as his or her major field of study, and thus be enabled to examine more intensely a specific field of study, and gain depth and a degree of competence in using and communicating this knowledge. The University reserves the right to drop a major or minor field for lack of sufficient enrollment to guarantee a class size of 10 or more in upper-division courses of that field. There are certain instances where particular combinations of majors and minors, or requirements for certification for positions of employment for graduates, may require a student to complete more than 120 semester hours. If a student begins one specialization or major, and then changes to another, the University cannot guarantee that the student will graduate without exceeding the number of 120 hours or eight semesters of work, stated as the minimum requirement for graduation.
Honors Program
Academically talented students tend to learn at a different pace and hold different interests than the general population, but grades alone cannot distinguish them. An “A” might be earned under great hardship for one, but passively by another. The key question is whether all students are full stewards of their capacity. The academically talented are at risk of failing that test because school can feel relatively easy. They should experience a curriculum that addresses this capacity. It should not be organized for difficulty, but distinction.
The mission of the Olivet Honors Program is to encourage and nurture academically talented students in the integration of Christian faith and scholarship, preparing them for servant leadership in the church and world. This provides not only an academic and spiritual community, but social as well. In fact, prior to the sophomore year, all Honors students are provided a one-night, two-day city tour (architecture, museum, the arts) at a regional point of interest.
This 18-credit plan has two phases. First, participants take one Honors course per semester for the initial two years. They are populated only by Honors students, and led by a faculty cohort of four. These 12 credits are substitutes - not additions - for the following general education courses, unavailable for CLEP credit: COMM 105 - Fundamentals of Communication , THEO 110 - Introduction to Christianity , Humanities, and Stewardship. The courses are interdisciplinary and team-taught to cultivate prowess in intellectual integration.
Examples of Honors course topics include: Faith and Film, Subtle Messages in Advertising, Rare Books Seminar, Reproductive Technology and Bioethics, and the like. Such courses are novel and might not be repeated from cohort to cohort.
Second, participants earn six credits during the final two years for a substantial, faculty-mentored research project. (It may be “performance” for relevant disciplines such as Music, Theater, Art, etc.). The first semester of the junior year is devoted to the construction of a research proposal, then two semesters are spent conducting the work. The final senior-level semester is dedicated to the preparation and presentation of results at a campus Research Symposium and/or a regional Honors event through the National Collegiate Honors Council. If appropriate, the faculty-student project may be featured in a professional venue.
Fewer than 30 are admitted each year, constituting roughly 5% of the undergraduate population. Applications are made in January and February of the preceding academic year. Contact the Admissions Office or Honors Director for more information.
Preparation for Graduate Study and Preprofessional Study Programs
Olivet has developed degree programs that adequately prepare students for graduate and professional study in a variety of fields. Preparation for these fields may be in majors related to the professional study. Detailed programs outlining these studies at Olivet may be obtained by writing to the Director of Admissions or to the chair of the appropriate department.
Fields for which Olivet offers preprofessional preparation include Clinical Laboratory Science, Law, Medicine, Ministry, Pharmacy, Physician Assistant, Physical Therapy, Art Therapy, and Psychology.
The student planning to pursue one of the preprofessional programs is advised to ask the Registrar for assignment to the appropriate preprofessional faculty adviser. The student should also become acquainted with the professional school’s requirements for admission.

Oxford Scholars’ Semester
The Scholars’ Semester in Oxford allows a student, as a member of Wycliffe Hall and a visiting student at Oxford University, to do intensive scholarship in this historic seat of learning. Working with academic tutors, students hone their skills and delve into the areas that interest them most. Students broaden their thinking and earn 16 credits by living and learning in this major crossroads of the academic world. The Scholars’ Semester in Oxford is an interdisciplinary program which gives no preference to students in any particular field of study. However, a good academic record and an undertaking to live as part of a Christian community are necessary. Students are required to maintain a GPA of at least 3.7 on a 4.0 scale, regardless of major.
