We offer public audits through the SES Academy. What that means is that the audit will not be recorded on any academic transcripts. It’s almost like paying a ticket to gain access to a live-event or conference. Academic audits are available to the general public.
Academic audits are available only to students enrolled through Southern Evangelical Seminary’s Bible College or Graduate School. The price is the same. The difference is the audit is recorded on the student’s transcript.
The advantage of the public audit is that there is no application process. You only need to set up an account on the Academy to purchase the audit. Also, since the audit is not recorded on a transcript, you don’t run the risk of admissions personnel at other schools questioning your transcripts and academic commitment if you have audited more than a few courses. The disadvantage of Public Audits is that only a limited number of courses are offered at a time.
