Student Handbook

The Student Handbook website is designed to provide easy access to information that is relevant to all students of �鶹�� and Moravian Theological Seminary (also referred to as "�鶹��" or "the University"). Although the intended audience of the Handbook is all currently enrolled students, some sections may not be applicable to all populations. When appropriate, this is noted.

The information in the Handbook is subject to change from time to time as deemed necessary by the University in order to fulfill its role and mission or to accommodate circumstances beyond its control. Any such changes may be implemented without prior notice and without obligation and, unless specified otherwise, are effective when made. Efforts will be made, however, to inform the student body of significant changes in a timely manner.

All students should review the Handbook in its entirety and are expected to be familiar with its content. This can be accomplished by navigating the menus on the left side of the screen and following links to important policies and information. The gray box at the bottom of the screen will always include important links, regardless of where you are in the Handbook website.

Below are some highlights intended for ease of use, but should not be reviewed solely as a substitute to reviewing the entire Handbook.
