    Are there any "continuing Anglican" or "independent catholic" schools offering theology degrees that are regionally accredited?

    Short answer: I don’t think any ‘continuing Anglican’ seminary is regionally accredited.

    However, Nashotah House Theological Seminary is a regionally accredited Episcopal oriented conservative ‘catholic’ Anglican school with a distance MA Ministry.

    I agree that I do not think there are any. Nashotah of course is excellent (but you will need to make trips to the school).

    The Reformed Episcopal Church is a credible denomination (founded in the 1800s) with three unaccredited seminaries with varying amounts of DL.

    St. Andrews has made it to applicant status with the ABHE (IIRC). No guarantee they will achieve accreditation. St. Andrews Theological College and Seminary

    Beyond that you may want to try one of the accredited Roman Catholic programs.

    Don't forget that theological education is fickle. Trying to get a degree from one of these groups or even accredited Catholic education is not going to work if you want to serve in a Baptist Church (which I assume by your question you do not).

    Try Church Divinity School of the Pacific

    This extremely well regarded member of the GTU may be worth checking out. They have been around for many years and offer a variety of courses. Church Divinity School of the Pacific (CDSP) - The Episcopal Seminary of the West

    It is worthwhile to note that the Association of Theological Schools will not accredit any completely online programs. They do have a list of all schools which do offer distance courses and programs at: The Association of Theological Schools

    Thanks for the link to St. Andrews -- very interesting program.

    I'm not sure where I could serve; I'm very much a theological hybrid.
