School’s Comments:

Institution: The Augustine Institute Graduate School was founded in 2005 in response to St. John Paul II’s call to Catholic universities to offer “a living institutional witness to Christ and his message” and to serve the Church’s mission of evangelization. The Graduate School offers master’s degrees in Theology, Pastoral Theology, Biblical Studies, and Catholic Education, that are practical, contemplative, and accessible. At the heart of the program is a group of dedicated Catholic educators and scholars committed to the harmony of scholarly reflection and apostolic activity. The Augustine Institute is a fully accredited member of the Association of Theological Schools (ATS.edu). Every regular faculty member has a mandatum to teach in the Archdiocese of Denver and makes the “Profession of Faith” and “Oath of Fidelity” to the magisterium of the Church. 

Campus Culture: Whether on-campus or online, students receive a rich intellectual, spiritual and evangelical formation. On-campus students enjoy a common life of prayer, including daily Mass, confession, individual spiritual direction, and spiritual conferences. On-campus students also participate in weekly theological seminars and personalized internship opportunities with Denver-area apostolates. Students in the state-of-the-art distance-education program receive a personalized experience, including one-on-one interaction with faculty and the flexibility of on-demand study. Distance students also have the option of taking week-long intensive courses on-site in Denver to meet faculty and fellow students.
