The Fellows Program at Garrett provides you with a unique opportunity to join a cohort of students with similar callings and/or backgrounds. In additional to a scholarship, Fellows will receive mentorship from a Garrett faculty member, engage in fellowship with other students in their cohort, participate in networking opportunities with alums and other ministry leaders through various events, and more.
Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary has been a leader in preparing students for ministry as a deacon since The United Methodist Church created the Order of Deacons in 1996. The Deacon Fellows program is designed for students pursuing a calling to ordination as a deacon in The United Methodist Church.
This Fellows Program recognizes the unique gifts of our Hispanic and Latiné applicants as well as those who minister in bilingual settings and/or those who have significant contributions to make to the global religious landscape
Since 1970 and the foundation of the Center for the Church and the Black Experience, Garrett has supported the ministry experiences of those serving and hoping to serve in Pan-Methodist settings. This Fellows program particularly supports students who hope to be in ministry with members of the African diaspora.
