We are happy to partner with Shepherds Theological Seminary, Cary, NC by offering our church as a teaching site. We have all the appropriate technology necessary for participating students to enjoy a live-streamed, interactive, shared learning experience.

If you have limited or no undergraduate college credit, you can enroll in one of three diplomat programs (one-year delivery and format). If you maintain a 2.5 GPA over 12 credit hours of study, you can be evaluated to enter a master’s program and have your Diploma courses transferred. In addition, a student who completes one of the Diploma programs may petition to continue into the Master of Divinity degree program, provided they meet the appropriate qualifications.

Below is a plan to show how a new student will be able to finish an MTS degree in 3.5 years at a minimum. This format for classes includes 2 hours live and one hour recorded. A key reason for this new format is so students can complete their degrees in a more timely manner. (The MTS courses also transfer to the MDiv degree for those interested).

If you have further questions, the Shepherds Theological Seminary website should be able to answer them.
