Where did you hear about City Seminary?
City Seminary embraces the essential doctrines of the historic Protestant Christian faith as confessed in the Heidelberg Catechism (1563 A.D). Students may hold to a different doctrinal standard, provided they confess the following, without reservation:

• The authority, infallibility and inerrancy of Scripture

• The Trinity

• The full deity and humanity of Christ

• The fallen nature of man

• The substitutionary atonement and bodily resurrection of Christ

• Salvation by faith alone in Christ alone

• The future, physical return of Jesus Christ

Our commitment to you assures you of the following benefits: 

  • A full range of courses offered in a prescribed sequence. The cost per course includes all materials for the course except textbooks and reading materials, for which you are responsible. Textbook information will be provided online approximately 3 weeks before each class begins.
  • Instruction and administrative services available every trimester you are actively enrolled until graduation on or before 150% of the program’s intended length at which point you may be required to reinstate your Agreement. Master of Divinity students must complete their program in 8 years.
  • You are entitled to receive a degree in this program once you have completed the following:

o   The minimum number of units required

o   All of the required courses in the degree program and a 2.0 or higher cumulative GPA 

o   Any and all financial obligations to the Seminary 

As a new student, you will be provisionally enrolled until all admissions documents are received per your acceptance letter, and until you successfully complete the first four courses. At that time, you will become officially enrolled in the program. 

City Seminary of Sacramento is committed to providing accessible education opportunities to the disabled community whenever possible. If you require disability accommodation, it is your responsibility to request this before beginning your program of study. 

Your commitment to us assures the Seminary of the following:

  • Prompt payment for courses: Payment for courses is due before the trimester start date. Until all financial obligations are paid in full for a trimester, you will not be allowed to enroll in successive trimesters.
  • Adherence to the Seminary Satisfactory Academic Progress policy and respect of the Seminary’s administrative policies.
  • Appropriate student conduct as outlined in the Seminary’s Academic Integrity and Plagiarism policy and its Code of Conduct.
