Cooperative Programs
Although Great Lakes Christian College exists primarily to prepare servant-leaders for the church, it also seeks to provide Christian leadership to the world.
For those who decide to serve Christ in non-church related careers, GLCC will:
- Provide an educational foundation from a distinctly Christian perspective;
- Provide an enhanced understanding of the Bible; and
- Prepare students for professional vocations.
Spring Arbor University Cooperative Program
(Elementary Education)
Spring Arbor University’s Lansing Office offers a fully accredited Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education on GLCC’s campus. Students take the relevant GLCC classes and transfer them into Spring Arbor’s program. Classes not offered by GLCC are offered by Spring Arbor faculty on our campus. Elementary Education students minor in both Social Studies and Language Arts.
Spring Arbor’s program is approved by the Michigan Department of Education for certification in Michigan . This program has further accreditation by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher’s Education (NCATE). This accreditation is more readily recognized as certification or licensure in any state.
University of Phoenix Articulation Agreement
Great Lakes Christian College and the University of Phoenix have a formal articulation agreement that facilitates the transfer of students who have received an associate's degree from GLCC into a baccalaureate program at the University of Phoenix . The agreement allows for maximum transfer of credit and a seamless transition for students earning an associate's degree. A maximum of 57-72 transfer credits will apply to the baccalaureate program. Additional general education credits may be needed to fulfill the program requirements at the University of Phoenix . Students transferring without an earned associate degree can transfer a maximum of 57-72 credits for courses earned with a grade of C- or better. If a student enrolls in the Bachelor of Science in Management program, the associate degree focus will be listed as an area of emphasis on the baccalaureate degree and the University of Phoenix diploma.
The Lansing campus of the University of Phoenix is located on Lake Lansing Road . Other baccalaureate programs offered by University of Phoenix and available for GLCC transfer students are Business/Administration, Business/Accounting, Business/e-Business, Business/Management, Business/Marketing, Criminal Justice Administration, Health Care Services, Human Services, Information Technology, and Management.
