Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary

As you prepare for a life of discipleship, finding the right seminary is crucial. Like the San Francisco Bay Area where it’s located, Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary thrives on diversity. PLTS accepts applicants regardless of race, background or sexual orientation. The seminary’s urban location provides plenty of opportunities for outreach, as well. College life at PLTS gives you the chance to explore the community and spread the gospel of Jesus. The seminary is also part of the Graduate Theological Union, which also comprises several other religious graduate schools in the area. Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary offers graduate academics leading to a master’s or doctoral degree. A few certificate programs are also available, in subjects like Theological Studies and Theological Education for Emerging Ministries. Additionally, a six-week Biblical Greek course is available during the summer. PLTS has a rolling admissions policy. While applications are accepted until the start of each semester, it’s a good idea to apply early, as space is limited. Applying early will also maximize your eligibility for financial aid. If you have questions about the application process, please contact the school directly.
