The Leaders in Self-Paced Online Distance Learning for Metaphysical Degrees Since 1959

What is Metaphysics?

“My definition of metaphysics would be the search for absolute reality. The search for: Who am I? What am I? Where have I been? Where am I going? What is the relationship of man, mind and the Universe? If you can answer those questions, you can find your place in life. If you can’t, then it doesn’t matter, you’re just a wanderer.”

—Dr. Paul Leon Masters

Metaphysics acknowledges and respects the beauty in ALL of God’s Creation.

Metaphysics is religion without dogma.

Metaphysics does not explore religious beliefs and laws created by man, but rather, it explores the immutable laws of nature, set by The Creator, God/Universal Presence, in the creation of the Universe.

Metaphysics is a branch of philosophy that studies the ultimate nature of existence, reality, and experience without being bound to any one theological doctrine or dogma.

Metaphysics includes all religions but transcends them all.

Metaphysics is the study of ultimate cause in the Universe.

Metaphysics is the only science capable of inquiring beyond physical and human science.

A Curriculum Based on Decades of Consciousness Research

Since 1959, we have developed an evolving consciousness-researched, results-tested curriculum to give greater opportunity for success to all who enroll and graduate in whatever specialty they choose. See our Mission Statement.

Your Interests are Important to Us

Our students and graduates represent a vast diversity of metaphysical beliefs. We recognize that there are many paths to truth, higher consciousness, spiritual reality, and God/Source. Whatever your path in this lifetime, our curriculum gives you a strong foundation for success.

We provide a place for everyone’s metaphysical approach to Transpersonal, Transcendent, Theocentric, Holistic New Thought Metaphysical studies. This includes the mystical, philosophical, health, yoga, wellness, spiritual healing, and other subjects that are associated with the word metaphysics .

Our degree program is intended for all metaphysical specialty practices, such as counseling, life coaching, wellness practitioner, spiritual healing, teacher, chaplaincy, parapsychology, hypnosis, psychology, and ministry.

We offer the opportunity to participate in post-graduate continuing education for those who would like to further enhance their knowledge or expand their training for career fulfillment in metaphysical studies.

We Award All Inclusive Scholarships

It gives us great pleasure to say we have not raised our tuition in nearly two decades.

It is our intention to award prospective students an equal and affordable opportunity to participate in metaphysical studies and a higher consciousness education. Currently, scholarships are available to all enrolling students, making it easily affordable to study and earn your degree up to a doctoral specialization.

Scholarships enable you to enroll for as little as $90 down and only $25 monthly for 48 months for a total tuition of $1,290, or for as little as $990 for prepayment in full, saving an additional $300.

A scholarship will save you 80% off the total tuition cost and funding is made possible from generous alumni members, who have benefited from a scholarship and intend to pass their gift forward. The scholarship fund is reviewed for availability every two weeks.

Peace of Mind When Enrolling with Us

We are the leader in distance learning metaphysical degree organizations with the longest history of any metaphysical degree awarding school, evolving since 1959.

We have over 14,000 graduates and over 8,000 practicing IMM ministers worldwide.
