Dallas Theological Seminary

Seems like a wonderful seminary but unfortunately they do not offer housing that allows for a dog. I have had her for 10 years, I have no choice. And it is very important to my wife and I that we live on campus. So far, Southwestern and Southern Baptist Theological Seminaries offer housing on campus for a family with a dog.

You’re here to study. You really want to become intertwined with the church and as close to God as possible. You want to spread awareness of the Lord’s unconditional love for all of his creations. This is what Seminary is for. My friend is a student here and he made it a point to drag me around probably the least impressive and inspiring campus I have ever seen. I was a little shocked at the gender-​assigned parking. Apparently there is some logic behind why men and women shouldn’t park their cars in the same lot. I was so confused while driving his car, where the heck I should park.
If you attend this Seminary, it is highly recommended that you live off campus. My friend took a moment to share how the walls of the dormitories can seem to collapse with the ever-​curious community of students who live there. Basically, you have no privacy. I guess even the most prestigious students of the seminary seem to forget that only God can judge. Perhaps the Seminary should add a class which addresses this issue.
Generally the education you receive here seems no different from every other University you attend. My friend has almost completed his education, unfortunately Churches aren’t really looking to hire despite the fact that he has expressed interest in working for them. My friend has involved himself in more internships than most regular people can handle. I have yet to understand why we spend so much money with so little return. If education is supposed to be an investment, you expect it to pay off no matter what your profession. I feel as though the blessing or opportunity of receiving an education at DTS shouldn’t count. Appreciation for the education you have worked so hard for will not pay your bills.
Not to belittle the quality of education, but the previous reviewer has pointed out that you have mellowed on your conservative ideals. With that, I would assume comes the recognition that times are changing. What is DTS doing to make sure their students are placed in a church after all the money they’ve spent. Especially if internships aren’t working? I sincerely hope progressive changes are made soon. Especially when you consider the money these students pay you. Have you considered these students have loans to pay?

DTS is a Seminary that offers theological and ministry-​related degrees from an evangelical perspective. Within the Protestant world, this is one of the best schools in the nation — their ThM four-​year graduate program is about as rigorous as they get. They used to be pretty strongly conservative but have mellowed with time, while still providing an academically excellent education.
