The Graduate Theological Union (GTU) Course Schedule lists courses offered by all GTU schools including SFTS. Here you will find the most up-to-date and accurate information regarding course descriptions, instructors, time and location of the class, prerequisites (if any), any special registration registrations (i.e. limited enrollment, course PIN required, prior interview, etc.) and course credits.
Go to the GTU web site: http://www.gtu.edu/academics/course-schedule
The searchable feature allows you to search by day and time, school, academic area, key word, or instructor name. To view SFTS courses only, choose “SFTS” in the School Course Ownership field on the searchable course schedule.
Under each of the SFTS courses below you will find a list of required and optional texts which you may purchase on line or in a local bookstore. If you are taking a course offered by another GTU school, go here for textbook information:
