Seminary Partners

Books stacked on classroom desk

The following seminaries have partnered with MCC in one or more of the following ways:

  • Member of MCC leadership is on the Board of Directors or Faculty staff
,
  • MCC has established scholarship or academic awards for MCC students,
  • MCC students currently or in the past have been welcomed into the seminary community

As you are planning your theological education, it is important to be in communication with the Vocational Leadership Coordinator prior to making any commitments  VLC@mccchurch.net.

We believe in having well educated and trained clergy. The terminal theological degree for ordination or its equivalent from an accredited school of theology (i.e. accredited by an agency that is part of The World Conference of Associations of Theological Institutions – www.wocati.org) will be generally required as our minimum educational standard.

However, we do understand that people come to MCC ordination from many different paths of ministry preparation and experience. In an effort to affirm this diversity, individuals without a terminal theological degree from an accredited school can request to have their previous course of study and experience be accepted in full or in part toward meeting equivalency. The Office of Formation and Leadership Development may grant the equivalency or give partial equivalency with additional courses being required. This decision is most often made at the REVM in consultation with the REVM faculty as a part of the MAP requirements.
