Scholarships
Our Work-Study Scholarship program is offered to full-time, in-person students. At the beginning of each semester students may accept a seminary community job requiring 2-3 hours of effort per week from our approved list. These scholarships, valued at 50% of that semester’s tuition, are awarded under the assumption that the work will be consistently and satisfactorily completed during that semester. One of those weekly hours may be used to communicate with family, friends, and church associates to encourage their support of the student. This program helps to keep fees and
tuition costs low and provides a greater sense of community. Remote students are not eligible to receive this scholarhip.
Sangre de Cristo Seminary offers 50% tuition scholarships to 3rd-year full time students enrolled in the Master of Divinity Degree or Diploma in Biblical Studies programs. Application for these scholarships is limited to students who plan to enter full-time professional Christian ministry following graduation or completion of their academic preparation. Recipients are encouraged in their preparation for gospel ministry. Eligibility is limited to students who earn a C average or better for each previous semester. If a recipient of the Ministry Tuition Scholarship does not enter the ministry, he will be obligated to pay back to Sangre de Cristo Seminary the value of this scholarship. Funds for this scholarship are made available through the charitable gifts of God’s people.
Donors may contribute to the seminary’s General Scholarship Fund which benefits the students. This fund is used to cover tuition or other direct seminary expenses. The Seminary Scholarship Committee makes awards at its sole discretion to the accounts of specific students from funds available. However, the Committee is forbidden by IRS Tax codes to direct awards to any named student’s account, nor give awards directly to any student, while the contributor is receiving a tax-exempt receipt for their contribution. Upon graduation, any unspent balance in a student’s account due to scholarship awards overage shall be returned to the seminary general fund.
Policies
Funding for Sangre de Cristo Seminary’s ministry expenses come primarily from donations of interested friends and churches. These contributions are tax-deductible. The Seminary is a tax-exempt organization under the Internal Revenue Code 501(C)(3) and, as required for tax-deductibility, maintains full control and ultimate discretion over all contributions for use in its ministry. The seminary strives to maintain the highest standards of integrity and accountability in every area of its ministry – including financial responsibility. The seminary financial records are maintained by an independent accounting firm, overseen by our board of directors, and are open for inspection by interested parties.
At this time Sangre de Cristo Seminary is not
accepting International students.
The seminary is in the process of renewing its arrangement to receive Veterans
Administration funding through the Colorado State Approving Agency.
