Academic Catalog

Our academic catalog serves as the institution’s authoritative map for teaching and learning, defining what the school offers, how it is organized, and what is required of students and faculty. It outlines programs, degree requirements, course descriptions, academic policies, calendars, and standards of conduct, providing clear expectations from admission through graduation. As a contract-like reference, it protects students by documenting rights, responsibilities, and pathways to completion, and it protects the institution by stating official policies, prerequisites, grading systems, and deadlines. Practically, it helps students plan coherent degree paths, advisors verify progress, faculty align curricula, and external partners understand accreditation, transfer, and ordination or licensure alignment.

Academic Calendar

An academic calendar at Trinity Anglican Seminary serves as the shared rhythm that orders our life of worship, study, and community. It sets the dates for terms, registration, add-drop, exams, and breaks, while coordinating chapel cycles, feast days, formation milestones, and key events with the ACNA ordination pathway. By clarifying program timelines, residency and church-based requirements, and important administrative deadlines, the calendar gives students and faculty a clear path from calling to completion. It helps learners plan coursework, internships, and parish involvement without sacrificing spiritual practices, and it enables the seminary to align rigorous academics with classic Anglican formation so that every season intentionally moves students toward confident, competent ministry.
