Memphis Theological Seminary announced a new Pre-Seminary Program which will allow the institution to broaden access to graduate-level theological education for ministry, by admitting students who do not have a Bachelor’s degree, but who are able to demonstrate their call, character, and capacity for graduate level theological studies. The Pre-Seminary program gives the seminary a rigorous means by which to assess prospective students’ capacity for doing graduate level theological studies apart from simply requiring an accumulation of undergraduate credit hours.
