Pay half by registration day followed by three consecutively scheduled monthly installments (+ $350. Additional fee)
Option 3
Pay half on registration day and half by a scheduled date sometime in the beginning of January (+ $450. Additional fee)
Are students allowed to work during the year?
Yes. The RSM schedule has two off days built in, which are encouraged to be taken to work. It is important that students understand that some required ministry opportunities occur during off days, so we encourage students to communicate with their employers ahead of time. We ask that students plan their work schedule around their RSM schedule.
Can my family visit me during the year?
Absolutely! We welcome any RSM student’s family to visit throughout the year. We simply ask that family members call ahead to ensure that the RSM students are not out of town.
Are there any other requirements to join RSM?
Yes. Every RSM applicant must be at least 18 years old and must have a High School Diploma or GED.
What does a typical day look like?
RSM generally keeps a very active schedule. Every day, students will spend time in prayer, devotion, and worship. Afterward, students will have a few hours of academic and college courses. After lunch, we may have another couple of classes then each RMS student will participate in various Ministry Tracks such as Youth, Children, Evangelism, Music, etc. or prep for different ministry opportunities.
When does the program begin and end? Are there any breaks?
RSM officially begins in October and ends in the beginning of May. There will be breaks for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
