The Seminary cannot register any foreign student for study at Karu, who does not have the relevant documentation. At present, there is a facility for distance/online learning offered by the Seminary.
Foreign applicants, who cannot come to Nigeria, can equally study online and obtain the same Degrees with those on-campus.
