I. Is the Holy Apostles Distance Learning program accredited?

- Holy Apostles College and Seminary, including our distance learning program, is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC), and by the State of Connecticut Board of Higher Education.

II. Is there a residence requirement for the Holy Apostles Distance Learning program?

- There is no residency requirement for the Holy Apostles DL program. The entire program can be completed online within ten years from the date of enrollment.

III. What degrees does the Holy Apostles Distance Learning program offer?

- Our Distance Learning (DL) program is currently for graduate studies only. Students enrolled in our program can earn a Master’s degree in Philosophy or a Master’s degree in Theology. Students can not receive a Bachelor’s degree or an M.Div through our DL program. 

IV. Can a student receive a dual degree in Philosophy and Theology through the Holy Apostles Distance Learning program?

- The course work for the Philosophy and Theology programs do not converge and so students can not work toward both degrees simultaneously. In the past, some students have chosen to complete one Master’s program and then return for the second.

V. What is the enrollment policy for the Distance Learning program at Holy Apostles and how are the semesters set up?

- The DL program has a rolling admissions policy. We offer three full semesters of course work per year divided up over 15 week sessions. Our sessions run in the Fall, Spring and Summer. A student interested in the DL program can enroll in one class as an in-process student while a completed application is on file.
