The story of the Atlantic School of Theology is one of community and collaboration – a coming together to create one university where students are prepared to meet the theological and ethical challenges of our world today.

Recognized as one of the finest theological schools in North America, AST has a faculty and programs that encourage excellence in educational achievement and shape community leaders who draw on their theological and ethical knowledge and skills to help build a better world. AST is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada, and offers a Master of Divinity degree and – through our affiliation with Saint Mary’s University – a Master of Arts (Theology and Religious Study) degree. The university also offers a 10-credit Graduate Certificate Program in Theological Studies, an Adult Education Certificate in Theological Studies, a Diploma in Youth Ministry, and a Diploma in the New Evangelization – with online and on campus options. Lectures and interesting continuing education options dealing with real world issues are offered at various times throughout the year and are advertised on the AST website.

But more than that, AST offers a place for research, study and reflection. A place to explore faith and learn how to draw on it to enrich the lives of others. A place where leaders of today and tomorrow gain the knowledge and skills to change and influence our world for the better. Welcome to a different kind of university. Welcome to AST.
