Course Offerings
One of the benefits of education at MVNU is that our classes are academically rigorous while being intentionally Christian. Each class is crafted to fulfill the mission of our Fine Arts degrees while equipping our student to be life-long servant leaders.
CCP Pathways
The Core Pathway
The Core Pathway is composed of highly transferable general education courses. This Pathway is recommended for students who are only able to take a limited number of classes through CCP or for those students who are taking their required 15 credits in Level-1 coursework.
Specialized Pathways
Specialized Pathways are designed with a major in mind. They build upon the Core Pathway with courses geared toward a specific degree -- STEM, Education, Health Science, Business, etc. These pathways are customized and coordinated with the associated department.
