Another D.L. degree in Bible and Contemporary World

Was searching some school sites and found this offering from a very good school, University of St. Andrews.

Part-time but looks good

Thank you for posting this Drew~~~

This is very, very good news!

I have thought that St. Andrews would perhaps be my favorite choice for PhD work. I have been searching for precisely this same course in theology for quite some time.

Chris,

I too would love to go to one of Scotlands universities for Ph.D. work. St. Andrews, Edinburg, Glasgow, or HTC. BUT I find myself in two dilemas.

1) I don't have a bachelors yet. So I have to learn to walk before I begin to dance.

2) I don't believe that God will allow me to do Ph.D. work any time soon. (meaning when i get done with seminary work)

I have been called into the ministry and my goals and desires center around that. I will hopefully get a D.Min someday, although alot of people don't consider that a "real doctorate" Hopefully I can finish my bachelors and start Southern Seminary in 2004. Hey, a brother can dream can't he?....LOL.

For His Glory,

Good-looking program, but at $14,000 US (based on conversion from $9,000 GBP for overseas students) AND two compulsory residential requirements each year - are there better DL options?

Hey Steven,

Of course, if one is looking for utility, one should not look at St. Andrews.

However, if you are looking for a degree that will be a competitive one given the current theological landscape in American Evangelicalism, I can't think of a better alma mater than St. Andrews.

The fact that they offer DL in the theo. dept. is like Harvard or Yale allowing it. It's huge.
