Barbara Anne Keely, associate professor of Christian Education and congregational spirituality;

Presbyterian clergy mentor students in well-chosen field placements;

Presbyterian History and Polity is taught each year by Presbyterian faculty;

Elective courses on John Calvin and Reformed theological traditions are offered each year;

A study of the Book of Confessions is available as part of preparation for ordination;

As a significant community within United, there are opportunities for Presbyterian students to engage one another;

All students at United have access to the seminary’s generous program of financial aid. In addition, the Mary Bigelow McMillan scholarship program provides up to full tuition for entering Presbyterian students;

Presbyterian faculty, clergy from the wider church, and students share in the leadership of community worship;

The Presbyterian Hymnal is one of the seminarys hymnals; and

Presbyterian graduates serve the church in a wide range of ministries throughout the country.

“My faith has been stretched, ripped apart, put back together, and morphed into something completely new.

“My spiritual hunger has been fed, and I have indeed heard a call. I will always look upon this institution as being an extremely formative force in my life.”
