Berkeley Divinity School is the Episcopal seminary at Yale. As students of Yale Divinity School, Berkeley seminarians learn from world-renowned faculty, are a part of a highly qualified and diverse student body, and have access to libraries and facilities of the highest caliber. All Yale Divinity School students with demonstrated need receive full tuition scholarships.
Berkeley students are formed by daily worship using the Book of Common Prayer, spiritual direction, and a course of study in Anglican history, theology, and liturgy.
Berkeley was founded in 1854 and became a full partner to Yale Divinity School in 1971. Berkeley is the only accredited Episcopal seminary to do its work within a world-class university. For over 160 years, Berkeley has prepared clergy, educators, and leaders to serve throughout the Church. As the Church and its needs change, Berkeley is deeply committed to forming lay and ordained leaders to face modern challenges.
