The impact Candler makes in the world depends on the remarkable ministries and inspired leadership of both students and graduates who are striving to fulfill their God-given calling. Scholarships remove the financial barrier to a Candler education and make the Master of Divinity program accessible to all individuals, regardless of their financial circumstances.
A gift to the Master of Divinity Scholarship Fund supports our ultimate goal for students to attend Candler tuition-free and to remove the burden of debt as they begin their life of ministry.
Through your support Candler students will flourish and receive a transformational experience that not only shapes their lives but will bring a renewed vitality to churches and a healing presence to the communities they serve. Scholarship support allows Candler graduates the freedom to serve wherever God leads them.
"It’s been a prayer and a dream realized to be a successful student at a seminary the caliber and reputation of Candler School of Theology. Thanks to the UMC, scholarships, and online classrooms, I’ve been equipped to do this work while pastoring a local congregation.” - Josh Tietje 25T, 3rd Year MDIV Student
