Distance M.Div. People

"If we want to keep ordained ministers in the pulpit, then it is past time to offer some alternative avenues for education, particularly for those serving, as I am, as a Commissioned Lay Pastor."

~ Rosemary McMahan

"I live in South Dakota, I am a lifelong Presbyterian and for some time now I have felt a call into ministry. The closest Presbyterian Seminary is Dubuque Seminary. The availability of online courses gives me the opportunity to take seminary classes and fulfill my desire for an MDiv."

~ Pat Hammond

"I have greatly enjoyed the UDTS classes and would really love to have the option of completing my MDiv through this program. It is the only Presbyterian Seminary offering online MDiv classes, or any distance learning options, that provide credit toward an MDiv. I would be extremely interested in exploring the program and how I can perhaps complete my MDiv with UDTS."

~ Keith Leach
