Tuition Discount Program

If you’re a current or former student of Leland Seminary or the School of Ministry, you can earn a tuition discount on a future course for every new student you refer to the Director of Recruitment, once your referred student enrolls in and successfully completes his/her first course in a Master’s, Graduate Certificate, or Diploma program.

 A “new student” means someone enrolling in a Leland Master’s, Graduate Certificate, or Diploma program for the very first time.

 A few helpful details:

  • Send your referrals to Rose Mary Stewart (Director of Recruitment) at rstewart@leland.edu

  • The discount goes to the Seminary or School of Ministry student who first recommends the new student to the Director of Recruitment.

  • Your discount will be applied to the tuition for the first Master’s, Graduate Certificate, or Diploma course you register for after your referred student completes his/her first course at Leland.

 Discount amounts:

  • $200 tuition discount when you register for a Master’s or Graduate Certificate course

  • $80 tuition discount when you register for a School of Ministry Diploma course

 Note: The Student Referral Program does not apply to training certificate programs (such as the Children and Youth Ministry Leadership Certificate, the Christian Leadership Certificate for Pastors of Spanish-Speaking Congregations, and the Executive Certificate in Remissioning).

 Thanks for spreading the word about Leland—we’re excited to welcome new students through your referrals!
