School’s Comments:

Institution:  The Augustine Institute Graduate School was founded in 2005 in response to Pope St. John  Paul II’s call for a New Evangelization. Today the graduate school offers  master’s degrees in theology, sacred Scripture and leadership that are rigorous, practical, contemplative and accessible. At the heart of the program is a group of dedicated Catholic educators 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 ondemand study. Distance students also  have the option of taking weeklong intensive courses on site in Denver to meet faculty and fellow students.
