Admitted Doctor of Ministry Students

Congratulations, you are on your way to taking the next step in your journey of faith in becoming a student at Asbury Seminary! So what is your next step? We are already planning and praying for your arrival, and we invite you to do so as well. You’re next steps are simple: connecting, committing, and coming to Asbury Seminary.

Connecting to Asbury Seminary

Your oneATS Account

In the application process, you were invited to set up a personal online account, known as your oneATS account. If you have not yet done so, you will want to register for an account as a first step towards becoming a student. Through your account, you will be able to access your Asbury Seminary email (see below), as well as the Asbury Information System (AIS). AIS gives you access to your personal account information, through which you will be able to register for classes, pay your bills online, and view your grades.

You can register for a oneATS account by following these instructions:

Go to https://one.asburyseminary.edu
Click on “register for an account”
Enter your ID number and your email address
Your oneATS username will be created
Set your oneATS password
Add the oneATS account to your favorites menu
Be sure to remember your oneATS username and password.

If you experience difficulty in setting up your account, please contact Information Commons by emailing Information.Commons@asburyseminary.edu or by calling either 800.2ASBURY or 859.858.2233.

Asbury Seminary Email

Your Asbury Seminary email address will be created as soon as you are admitted. You can access your email through your oneATS account (see above). You will want to check this email regularly, since we will use it to send all official Seminary communications.

An overview of email functions can be found under the email “help” section. If you have difficulty, please contact Information Commons by emailing Information.Commons@asburyseminary.edu or by calling either 866.454.2733 or 859.858.2233.

Financial Aid

Funding your education by implementing wise stewardship principles will be an important part of your educational experience. While scholarships for D.Min. students are awarded only to those selected to a Beeson program, a number of other forms of financial aid may be available to students who are already in ministry. The Financial Aid Office can assist you in determining the types of aid for which you qualify, and they can also help you get started with the application process. You can reach them by email at financial.aid@asburyseminary.edu.

Committing to Asbury Seminary

Confirm Your Admission

Let us know that you intend to come by submitting a matriculation deposit to your student account. This $100 non-refundable deposit will not only confirm your status as a student, but it will also go toward your first semester’s tuition. This will allow us to send your file to the Registrar’s Office so they can create your student program enrollment, a necessary step in the process of registering for classes.

You can submit your deposit by mailing a check or money order, or you can pay by credit card either through your oneATS account or by calling the Business Office at 859.858.2286.

Student Health Insurance

It is the expectation of Asbury Theological Seminary that all students who are enrolled at half-time status or greater will have, and keep active at all times while a student at the Seminary, adequate health insurance.

In accordance with the spirit of federal guidelines for certain Visa types, all students enrolled at Asbury Theological Seminary with citizenship other than the United States (referred to hereafter as an “international student”) are required to have health insurance coverage for themselves as well as all non-U.S. citizen dependents residing with them. All international students must provide a physical copy of their insurance plan’s certificate of benefits to the Office of Student Services no later than the add/drop deadline each semester. International students’ insurance must include coverage for medical evacuation and repatriation of remains. Insurance coverage must be in effect on the day of arrival in the United States and remain in effect for the entire time the student remains enrolled at Asbury Theological Seminary. Further details about the specific level of coverage required are available from the International Student Services Manager.

Prepare For Your First Class

Several months before the start of the first class, the Doctor of Ministry office will send you a syllabus for your first class. The syllabus will contain a reading list and other assignments to complete before arriving on the first day of class. You will want to get started a couple months before arriving.

Coming to Asbury Seminary

Housing Accommodations

On-campus housing is provided to all D.Min. students. Cost and details will be provided upon matriculation. If you have questions, contact the D.Min. office at 888.5BEESON.

New Student Orientation
