Bhaktivedanta Degree
To be accepted into this program a student must be an initiated brahmana from a recognized Vedic society and considered by the college to be a graduate student (advanced placement).
The above degree demands that a student pass a rigorous examination showing mastery of the religious texts required for this degree. Courses are offered to study and review for this examination. It is remotely possible that a student may pass the degree certification exam without taking courses in that scripture, although this situation would suggest years of home study completed, guided by an expert Vaishnava, to master the required scripture. Nevertheless, there is no credit requirement for this degree only that one must pass the mastery certification examination and must have been awarded the Bhakti-vaibhava degree and title prior to taking this examination. The college does suggest that each student will need to take between 30 to 40 Credit hours in the degree area to pass mastery examination.
