Student Testimonials

"I have liked the flexibility of the Graduate Studies Program because I work full-time. I have taken my own pace and have found a lot of understanding from LSTC professors, staff and students. I really appreciate this flexibility because it actually has allowed me to fulfill my goal of studying in a Ph.D. program."
           - Rev. Ruben Dominguez, U.S.A., Ph.D. candidate, Church History


"The LSTC faculty allows for great freedom when it comes to letting Ph.D. students pursue their own individual subject of interest. If you can make a case for the thesis you desire to defend, academic support is sure to be provided."
           - Anette Ejsing, Denmark, Ph.D. candidate Systematic Theology


"There are numerous points of interests and opportunities in post-graduate studies at LSTC. As a Presbyterian, I am enjoying deep ecumenical relationship in a Lutheran school. Interestingly, my enrollment in the doctorate program may not have been possible without the tuition scholarship incentive which the school offered to me. Besides, the rich library makes my research work a lot easier and enjoyable.


Above all, I find fulfillment in the diverse and wide range of opportunities for course selection in the cluster of ACTS schools due to it's strategic location. In this way, I am not limited in the pursuit of my academic goals. Finally, the availability and readiness of the faculty for academic interaction makes the institution quite distinct.


LSTC, I have observed, is not only multi-national, it is multi-religious and fully ecumenical. Indeed a school where human dignity is valued and respected, and where diverse religious orientations are welcomed. A home for all!"
           -Daniel Imo, Nigeria, Ph.D. candidate Theology/Mission


"Scholarship is a lifeline for a student from a third world country in pursuit of academic scholarship and leadership development. Each scholarship can have a multiplying effect if the recipient is committed to return to one's own country and serve in his or her church and society, as there is a dearth of qualified persons. To share your resources in the task of developing leaders is a God given opportunity in God's mission. Responsible use of such funds by the recipients of scholarships also is a God given opportunity to equip oneself for this mission. We need each other."
           -Prasanna Kumari Samuel, India, Ph.D. candidate, Theology
