Theological Colleges

There are three theological colleges (St. John's College, Auckland; Christchurch College, Christchurch; and Selwyn College, Dunedin), the latter two taking students of other faculties as well. Many of the students take arts and other degrees of the New Zealand universities before sitting for the Licentiate of Theology under examinations conducted by the Board of Theological Studies which was constituted by General Synod. These latter examinations are also open to laymen and extra-mural students. Some candidates for the ministry take degree and theological courses outside New Zealand.
