Auditing
At Manna University, we understand the passion you have for serving your local church and deepening your biblical knowledge. Our audit courses offer the perfect opportunity for you to gain valuable insights and practical skills in church leadership and biblical literacy without a college workload. Qualified individuals can audit select courses online or on-campus at a portion of the cost of our for-credit courses.

The advantage of auditing is that students can manage their own schedules. Attendance isn’t mandatory for on-campus auditing students. Auditing students do not have to submit any assignments or complete any quizzes or tests. Therefore, you can focus on what matters to you: gaining valuable information.
