Articulation Agreement Finalized with Columbia International Seminary
Urbana Seminary has entered an articulation agreement with Columbia International’s Seminary in South Carolina. The agreement details how some Urbana Seminary courses transferred into Columbia’s Master’s degree programs, thus making it possible for students in the Midwest to use Urbana Seminary classes as components of the degree programs at Columbia. Columbia is especially renowned for its emphasis on and curriculum in World Missions. In addition, Urbana Seminary students are also welcome to use Columbia’s courses as transfer credit in Urbana's Master’s programs, per the policies on transfer of credit in the catalogue. We welcome this new means of collaboration to enrich curricular offerings and accessibility at both schools.
