Brite Divinity School is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of nondiscrimination with respect to all employees, applicants for employment, admissions, financial aid, and housing. Brite Divinity School does not discriminate with regard to race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, citizenship status, age, physical or mental disability of an otherwise qualified individual, membership or application for membership in a uniformed service, or any other category protected by applicable law.
Brite Divinity School reserves the right to change any statement, policy or procedure set forth in this catalog, when deemed in the best interest of the Brite Divinity School and within established procedures. This catalogue is for informational purposes only and does not constitute a contract between any student and Brite Divinity School.
Brite Divinity School regularly reviews and assesses program requirements and program offerings. From time to time necessary changes occur which will have an impact upon a studentĄ¯s progress toward degree completion. While the Divinity School will strive to accommodate students in implementation of changes, the Divinity School reserves the right to make such changes and to require students to adjust their programs accordingly. Changes to academic programs are not made lightly. There is no guarantee that an entering student will not experience changes in requirements before graduation, especially if time to graduation is longer than the time to complete the program as a full-time student.
The Divinity School exists to serve the church and its witness. The Divinity SchoolĄ¯s distinctive purpose is educating women and men for varied Christian ministries in church and society. Churches, however, retain the exclusive right and responsibility to determine the appropriate qualifications for ordained and licensed ministry, to assess the fitness for ministry of individual candidates, and to credential persons for ministerial leadership.
