MORE THAN ONE WAY TO SUPPORT THE SEMINARY
If you would like to explore several ways of supporting Cal Grad,
please select from one of the choices below or scroll down the
page:
THE FRIENDS and ALUMNI OF CAL GRAD
The “FRIENDS and ALUMNI’” program is for men
and women committed to the Gospel mandate of Jesus Christ and
who want to support the evangelistic and teaching mission of CAL GRAD
through annual financial gifts of $1000 or more. It is our hope
that the alumni of CAL GRAD will also be our most dependable FRIENDS.
By God's grace the seminary has approximately 3,500 graduates
over its existence since 1969. Today, our graduates are serving
as Christian leaders in local churches, denominational administration,
academic institutions, counseling centers, successful businesses,
on the mission field, and even in high levels of political office.
Few schools in S. California have provided so many Christian leaders
into important positions and have maintained their unwavering
Biblical standards to educate the mind and hearts of theological
graduate students.
California Graduate School of Theology is an independent seminary
and the school receives no direct financial support from any one
denomination. We depend upon the voluntary gifts and offerings
of individuals and supporting churches.
The FRIENDS and ALUMNI OF CAL GRAD program is key to our fund
raising effort. The success of this program will allow the seminary
to build a solid base of continuing faithful support so that we
can keep our focus on our mission as well as expanding our programs.
For more information on how to become a FRIEND OF CAL GRAD, please
call the school office at 562 691-5219 or email us at info@cgsot.edu
GENERAL FINANCIAL AID FUND
The General Financial Aid Fund provides need-based grants to students
under specified conditions. The grants are awarded on an annual
basis and applied equally each semester to tuition charges.
Grants from this fund are made through the Financial Aid Committee,
which makes provisional awards to accepted students on a rolling
basis. Students participating in our General Financial Aid Fund
are expected to be active in their local church and participate
in volunteer on-site work related experience with Cal Grad.
For more information on contributing to this fund, please call
the school office at 562 691-5219 or email us at info@cgsot.edu.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENT FINANCIAL AID FUND
Each year grants from the International Student Financial Aid
Fund are available to international students who are committed
to return to ministry in their own countries after study in the
United States. Any international student receiving financial aid
must indicate their commitment to return to ministry in their
home country in writing.
Those who desire to donate to this need should designate their
gift to the International Student Financial Aid Fund. For more
information on contributing to this fund, please call the school
office at 562 691-5219 or email us at info@cgsot.edu.
PIETY AND SACRED STUDIES SCHOLARSHIP
California Graduate School of Theology has established a Piety
and Sacred Studies Scholarship. Students applying for this scholarship
must give evidence of both integrity in Christian living and the
ability to excel at sacred studies. The amount of the scholarship
may be determined according to the student’s financial ability
and will be given only to students enrolled full time. Any student
who is approved for this scholarship will be expected to volunteer
in local church ministry and participate in on-site volunteer-work
experience at Cal Grad.
Those who desire to donate to this important scholarship should
designate their gift to the Piety and Sacred Studies Scholarship.
For more information on contributing to this scholarship, please
call the school office at 562 691-5219 or email us at info@cgsot.edu.
Applicants are considered without regard to gender,
national origin, or handicap. However, the school reserves the
right to refuse admission to any individual who does not confess
Christ as his or her personal Savior.
In requiring the B.A./B.S. degree or its equivalent
for admission, the school recognizes the importance of a broad
education as a foundation for specialized theological study. A
bachelor's program that includes work in the major fields of humanity
and science gives students the discipline and general information
valuable for theological study and the work of the ministry. Adequate
attention should be devoted to English grammar and composition,
literature, speech, logic, and history.
