Program details
Overview
The Bachelor of Theology at Acadia Divinity College combines Biblical Studies with Christian History and Theology, alongside electives drawn from other university faculties, preparing students for various ministry settings as well as for further graduate study such as the Master of Divinity. The degree requires 30 courses (90 credit hours) distributed across Biblical Studies, Christian Thought, Practical Theology, a Ministry Experience component, and Liberal Arts electives. Learning is flexible, with courses available on campus, online, or through intensive units, allowing full-time study over roughly three years or part-time completion. The program is based in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, and offers several variants, including a track for those pursuing ordination through the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada, a partnership with Crandall University, a version paired with a TESOL certificate, and a shortened post-baccalaureate option for Acadia graduates who completed a theology minor. It suits students preparing for pastoral or ministry roles, or for further theological study, who need flexibility to combine on-campus, online, and intensive coursework.

Application Details
Application Deadline:Acadia does not publish year-specific application deadlines: its live admissions pages state only that domestic and international undergraduate applicants may apply any time after September 21st, with March 1st as the priority date for entrance-scholarship consideration (decisions by mid-April); no year is attached to either date. Admission is otherwise rolling, with no separate international closing date published. The Bachelor of Education programme has its own cycle, opening October 1st, but as of September 2026 the page still shows the stale 2025-2026 cycle and no current-cycle date has been published. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
