Covenant Theological Seminary Summary
Covenant Theological Seminary is the denominational seminary of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). In 1982, following a denominational merger (known as the “joining and receiving”) between what had become the Reformed Presbyterian Church-Evangelical Synod (itself the result of a merger in 1965 of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church and the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America-General Synod) and the PCA, Covenant Seminary became the national seminary of the PCA, which elects and oversees the work of the seminary’s Board of Trustees. As a fully accredited seminary by North Central Association of Colleges and Schools in 1973 and Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada in 1983, Covenant offers several academic degrees: Master of Divinity, Master of Arts (in Educational Ministries, Theological Studies, Counseling, or Exegetical Theology), Master of Theology, and Doctor of Ministry.
