Houston Extension program ends in 2010

Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary closed its Houston Extension Program, a non-degree, graduate-level program, effective July 2010. The Houston Extension program was designed for persons interested in beginning theological study and laypersons interested in deepening their theological understanding.

The seminary Board of Trustees cited a need for the seminary to remain focused on its core mission of the residential formation model of theological education, and to be mindful of the stated goal of reducing the seminary’s annual budget.
