Admission's Application Process

Prerequisites to apply to this Ministry Path now are:

1. Completion of twelve (12) specific core SEE classes (see below)
2. A Bachelors Degree or approved Academic Demonstration, and
3. Internet and email use.
4. Two years of increasing leadership in a Unity Church is strongly recommended.

If you meet these prerequisites, you are ready to submit an application. Applications will be available May 15, 2013. If you have questions, you can email our Credentialing Registrar at registrar@unity.org.

Applicants for this ministry path will be considered for admission based on the Admissions Teams' assessment of their:

•    Communication
•    Leadership
•    Maturity
•    Empathy and Nurturing
•    Decision Making, and
•    Unity knowledge, including understanding and application of the key concepts from the 12 core SEE classes.

The Minimum Twelve core SEE Classes: These courses require 120 hours of study (twelve 10 hour classes) in the following SEE categories:

• Thirty (30) hours of Biblical Studies and Skills:
  The Christ in the Bible
  Jesus' Teachings in the Bible
  Bible Interpretation: Hebrew scriptures
   
• Seventy (70) hours of Metaphysical Studies and Skills:
  Metaphysics I - Part 1
  Metaphysics I - Part 2
  Metaphysics II - Part 1
  Metaphysics II - Part 2
  Myrtle and Charles on Healing and Wholeness part one
  Twelve Powers
  Lessons in Truth
   
• Twenty (20) hours of Prayer and History:
  Life of Prayer (10 hours)
  Development of the Unity Movement (10 hours)

While these 12 courses/120 hours constitute a minimum requirement, there is great value in completing the Spiritual Development portion of SEE. Graduation from the SEE Spiritual Development Program is highly recommended.

Those who desire to move quickly can potentially complete these requirements by participating in three weeks of SEE in the field or at Unity Village.

All core SEE courses are available online. A growing number are self-paced and can be taken at the student's convenience. This permits rapid completion of these required classes. For more information go to unity.org/education/see or contact see@unityonline.org.
