      FROM THE PRESIDENT

   


Dear Visitor,

Thank you for visiting Austin Graduate School of Theology online. AGST is a seminary founded on the goals of educating Christian servants in understanding and practicing the faith, equipping ministers for service, and edifying churches. Our students represent a cross-section of Christian traditions and nationalities, making student life a particularly dynamic experience. Class sizes are small, offering students unusual access to our outstanding faculty.

By working through our accredited undergraduate and graduate degree programs, AGST students are taking a decisive step toward careers in ministry and education. Non-degree seeking students often take advantage of our curriculum to build their Bible knowledge and faith. Take a few minutes to learn more, and feel free to contact us for additional information. We look forward to serving you in your mission to serve the Kingdom!

Grace,

Stan Reid
President

Development Update

Austin Grad’s $3m BTD campaign for our new facility has been a tremendous success, but will run another year while pledges continue to come in. We welcome the early fulfillment of pledges to offset interest payments for building costs.

Our annual fund goal for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2009 is $440,000. Gifts thus far total $360,000. Thank you for your generous support! Among its many uses, the annual fund allows us to keep tuition reasonable, provide scholarships to deserving students and maintain our facility.

We will be holding a series of fundraising dinners in major cities across Texas beginning this June in an effort to recruit new supporters. Special thanks to our Board of Trustees, who are helping identify potential donors in their communities.

Attention Undergraduates!  Austin Grad can accept up to 72 hours of general education coursework from an accredited institution toward a Bachelor of Arts in Christian Studies.  Associate and undergraduate degree holders can complete the plan in as little as 18 months!  For admissions information, contact celeste@austingrad.edu.
