A student applying for admissions to any course of study offered by the Seminary must have a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university or its academic equivalent. Candidates for study will also be evaluated for character through letters of reference, and are normally a member of full communion of some branch of the Christian Church.

All students must apply for admission to a particular degree program or for special student status. Admission decisions are at the discretion of the Admissions and Standings Committee, a committee of the Seminary faculty.
