Students at the College are from varied countries, cultures, denominations and ages, forming a diverse and vibrant educational community.

We welcome those who are:

Building on a long history of theological education, Pilgrim offers a full range of awards aimed at creating a theologically equipped people of God formed for ministry, discipleship and leadership within and beyond the church.

Awards offered include diplomas, undergraduate degrees, graduate certificates and diplomas, postgraduate degrees and higher degrees by research.
