Admissions

Takanori Inoue (MATS Biblical Studies)AMBS welcomes you—whether you are seeking ways to enrich your life and work, whether you are testing a call to ministry, or whether you are already active in ministry. If you are looking for a community where knowledge, skills and character are shaped for the church, you'll find it here.

We will work with you to make sure cost is not a barrier to your study at AMBS. Low tuition, combined with financial aid, makes study at AMBS remarkably affordable. AMBS grants several full-tuition scholarships each year while our financial aid program is based primarily on financial need. With these resources and support from congregations and conferences, few full-time students pay the full cost of tuition.

Seminary Sampler

AMBS hosts a Seminary Sampler open house two times a year, once in early November and once in early March. This is a great time to explore seminary study and to find out how affordable and convenient it can be to take classes at AMBS. To register, send a message to the admissions office at admissions@ambs.edu or call 1 (800) 964-2627.

Canadian Students

Canadian students will find a number of financial benefits designed just for them, such as paying tuition and exchanging a certain amount of funds at par. Read more here.

International Students

All international students who wish to enroll at AMBS are required to provide evidence of funds to meet their educational, living and travel expenses. In order for AMBS to issue student visa papers, each applicant must submit to the seminary a written financial statement indicating how expenses will be met, listing all sources of income in U.S. dollars.

International students who have the recommendation and financial support of a Mennonite agency may qualify for some additional tuition assistance.
