Institutional Accreditation
New Covenant School of Divinity is a Christ-centered theological education and ministry training institution committed to biblical learning, leadership development, and practical preparation for Christian service.
New Covenant School of Divinity is not currently institutionally accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. The school does not represent its own programs as accredited unless a specific, verifiable accreditation applies.
Students are encouraged to review the school's academic offerings, admission requirements, tuition policies, and credential information carefully before enrolling.
Academic Credentials
NCSD offers educational programs and certificates as specifically identified in its academic catalog. The credential awarded depends on the individual program and its stated requirements.
Certificates of completion and other non-degree credentials should not be interpreted as accredited academic degrees. NCSD does not claim to award accredited degrees unless and until the applicable authority and accreditation requirements have been met.
Affiliations and Partner Programs
NCSD may collaborate with external educational institutions, ministry organizations, and training providers to support student learning and ministry development.
Such relationships do not automatically mean that NCSD itself is accredited. Where a partner provides a course, curriculum, certification, or credential, the school will identify the relevant organization and clarify which institution or organization is responsible for the program and its award.
Questions About Accreditation or Credentials?
Prospective students are welcome to contact NCSD for clarification regarding program requirements, certificate awards, institutional status, and educational partnerships.
