Cohorts
Western Seminary offers several degree programs in a cohort model, allowing a small group of students to journey through their program together from start to finish. Western reviews prospective students for admission based on criteria for each program.
What Sets Our Cohorts Apart?
- The convenience of condensed, once-a-month classes
- The opportunity to develop close relationships with other ministry leaders
- Bible and theology classes applied immediately to your ministry context
