Christian Theological Seminary

What are the graduation rates for students at Christian Theological Seminary?

Standard four-year and six-year undergraduate graduation rates are not an appropriate measure of Christian Theological Seminary's graduate programs. Those federal measures generally follow first-time students seeking undergraduate credentials, whereas CTS is a graduate seminary.

A more useful question is how students in the specific degree of interest progress: the typical time to completion, the proportion completing within the program's expected period, and the effect of part-time enrollment. Counseling applicants may also want to ask about completion of required clinical placements and any published licensure-related outcomes.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Christian Theological Seminary?

A single graduate earnings figure would give a limited picture of outcomes at Christian Theological Seminary. Its programs can lead toward different kinds of work - including ministry, counseling, and nonprofit service - with different pay structures and credential requirements.

When reviewing any earnings statistic, check whether it is a median or mean, how long after enrollment or completion it was measured, which former students are included, and whether results are broken out by program. Earnings do not capture every relevant outcome, such as denominational placement, clinical licensure progress, part-time work, or a graduate's decision to remain in an existing job.
