• One member of the resident faculty and three members of the staff are United Methodist:
  • Deb Olsen, administrative assistant to the dean
  • Christie Cozad Neuger, director of the Institute for the Support of Pastoral Ministries and senior scholar in pastoral care
  • Martha Postlethwaite, chaplain and associate professor of spiritual formation; M. Postlethwaite’s web page
  • Michelle Rodriguez, administrative assistant to admissions;
• UMC clergy act as mentors in carefully chosen field placements;
• History and Polity and the Theology of Wesleyan Traditions are taught on a regular basis by UMC adjunct faculty members;
• As a significant community within United, there are opportunities for UMC students to engage one another and be in conversation with the bishop, cabinet members, and other representatives of the Annual Conference through the UMC Seminar;
• Ecumenical worship at United means that UMC students, faculty, staff, and clergy have the opportunity to lead worship in their own tradition as well as experience worship in a variety of styles and traditions,
• The United Methodist Hymnal is a worship resource at the seminary; and
• All students at United have access to the seminary’s generous program of financial aid.

I would like an alum or current UMC student to contact me.
