Queen's Theological College

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Queen's Theological College is affiliated with Queen's University.

Originally the Faculty of Theology, it traces its origin to 1841 when the Presbyterian Church in Canada obtained a Royal Charter to establish Queen's. In 1911, the Faculty of Theology decided to separate from the rapidly growing university (Queen's became secular in 1912). On April 1, 1912, Queen's Theological College was created by an Act of Parliament with its own Board of Management

In 1925, Queen's Theological College entered the newly formed United Church of Canada, where it remains today. Queen's Theological College is one of six colleges in the United Church with primary responsibility for educating persons for ordained ministry, and is fully accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.
