Because of the uniqueness of the school, FTLT anticipates that it will not be able to accept all who have applied. The Leadership of FTLT has laid down clear criteria of race and gender as well as national and international students. They have embarked on a process to ensure that the appropriate students enroll.

How the application process works:

Once you have prayed and feel that the Lord may want you to be part of the school, you should mail your details to us A.S.A.P. When your response has been followed up successfully, FTLT will send you a full set of application forms that must be completed in detail. You will then send the application form together with its appropriate reference forms to the registrar of the school. If your application has been successfully considered you will be expected to confirm your final participation in the school by signing a document of understanding and making a deposit payment.

The decision of the Leadership of FTLT is final and no further dialogue will be entered into after the school has reached its maximum number of candidates for the year.

National Students – South Africa and all other countries on the Continent of Africa, incl. Madagascar.

International Students – Any other country in the world not situated on the Continent of Africa.

For National Students all fees are in South African Rand – “R”

For International Students all fees are in US Dollars – “US$”
