The Partnership Program

In a continuing effort to better prepare men and women for the challenges of ministry, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary is proud to announce The Partnership Program.

Available to 50 new incoming and current GCTS Master Degree programs at the South Hamilton campus, excluding the Master of Counseling (MACO) and Master of Theology (ThM) master degree programs, with an award of $9,000 (a tuition reduction of more than 60%), the Partnership Program will enable the student to bring with them the kind of community and prayer support that is crucial during the seminary years.

How does it work?

Interested individuals should apply for the scholarship with the Gordon-Conwell Partnership Director. All application forms can be found online at www.gordonconwell.edu/admissions/partnership_forms.php. Part of the process will be to provide the seminary with the names of at least twelve individuals and a sending church who you consider to be your "supporting team" - men and women who can pray for you, be participants in your vision for ministry, and even contribute financially to the scholarship fund to help you pursue that vision.

What are the criteria for selection?

Primary criteria for selection are: commitment to the local church, academic excellence, strong sense of calling, and proven leadership in ministry. Those who are selected will receive a $9,000 scholarship towards tuition each year. This scholarship is renewable for up to 3 years, and is reviewed each semester.

What are the benefits of the program?

Accepted students will also benefit from the following value-added features of the Partnership Program.

  • Continuing opportunities to strengthen ties with sending church, family and friends
  • Focused Mentored Ministry training in stewardship
  • An emphasis on learning biblical principles of stewardship
  • Practical ministry skills and experience
  • Practical fund raising training
  • Participating in spiritual and discipleship mentoring and training events

Our hope is that students will emerge from the program with principles for ministry that will serve them well not only during their time at Gordon-Conwell, but for a lifetime of fruitful ministry.

The years you spend in seminary as a student will be some of the most crucial years spent in your ministry life. With the Partnership Program, you won't have to go through them alone!
