At Bangor Theological Seminary, we've been helping people explore the
important questions about theological education since 1814! .
Many students
begin with questions about their commitments and callings as well as
discerning directions that lead from seminary to the wide variety of options
and opportunities available after graduation.
All
students, whether full- or part-time, M.A., or M.Div. benefit from being part of the Seminary community. Our small
class sizes and commitment to second-career students and small/rural church
ministry make BTS a place of challenging scholarship, lively inquiry, and
faithful witness.
We invite
you to experience this firsthand and look forward to meeting you!

Information evenings
[back to top]
Information Evenings are informal events, so there is no fixed agenda.
Participants use the time to ask questions and to receive information
that is relevant to their interests.
The Director of Admissions and
Financial Aid is available to talk about the programs in general as well
as answering specific questions. This is a good event for those who are
just wanting to see what seminary is all about, and may lead to
more exploration.
