"Telegraph then radio then movies then telephone then television then computers then the web then smart phones then social media… Modes of communication have evolved across the last 150 years to the point that the monological sermon can seem like an antiquated tradition. It begs the question: Why do we preach?"

Campus Visits

We understand that taking the next step toward obtaining a graduate theological degree can feel a bit daunting. That is why we continue to host students on campus for either an Inside Perkins event or for an Individual Visit. Making a visit is an important step in your journey and we are excited to host you as you get a sense for what your future could be!

Inside Perkins

For a longer visit experience, we recommend an Inside Perkins event. Prospective students will have the opportunity to connect with staff, learn from faculty, hear from current students, and enjoy a tour of campus. 

Faculty Lectures

Attending a lunch & lecture event allows students to use their lunch break to connect with admission staff and enjoy a meal, all while learning from a Perkins faculty member. 

Individual Visit

We want to work with your schedule to ensure you have an opportunity to visit campus and have a day tailored to your interests
