The first two years of the CBS program, focus on the biblical books that form the foundation of
both the Old and New Testaments. Years Three and Four of the program cover the remaining books of the bible, emphasizing their contexts and principle themes. While starting at the beginning of the four-year cycle is encouraged, a student can join the program at any point. Students completing the requirements of all four years of the Catholic Biblical School program will receive a Certificate of Advanced Biblical Studies from the School of Ministry, University of Dallas.
“Our approach to scripture is rigorous, scholarly, and in conformity with the best of Catholic
biblical tradition. CBS is guided by the directives of Scripture study as given in the Vatican II
document, Dei Verbum (1965), and in more recent documents by the Pontifical Biblical Commission such as The Interpretation of the Bible in the Church (1993), and The Jewish People and Their Sacred Scriptures in the Christian Bible
