Beloved Community

Our commitment to residential and spiritual formation, along with an excellent academic framework, means that you will learn how to speak and how to listen.

Relevant ministry formation

Stretch your imagination as you hold in tandem classic theological ideas and current societal issues. Learn from your professors, your colleagues, yourself.

One of the things that always made me hesitant to attend seminary was the cost … other schools talked a lot about how to take out student loans. Austin Seminary talked a lot about scholarships and how to receive financial aid. The 90% financial aid most students receive seemed like a huge help and was enough to sell me on Austin Seminary. The emphasis the Seminary places on financial help for students is unparalleled.

40% PCUSA, 26% UMC. 100% welcoming.

We're the only Presbyterian seminary with a faculty position in sacred music.
