Students have the opportunity to earn 15-17 hours of credit through the Wesley Institute, "a dynamic evangelical Christian community of people from a variety of vocations, locations, churches, languages and cultures.  Enrolling in a course of study involves a commitment to personal development through study and fellowship with others who share a common goal: being equipped to undertake ministry opportunities in all walks of life." 

All ASC students enroll in the required course "Australian History, Culture and Society," and select 3-4 additional courses from comprehensive offerings in the areas of dance, design, drama, music, theology, and integrative studies.
