Alumni feedback
Why I Chose St Patrick’s
One of my favourite aspects of St Patrick’s is how helpful the staff are. I also like how the smaller lectures allow you to establish friends while also getting to know the professors, which you may not be able to do at larger universities.
The MTh expanded my learning by exploring the Bible from new perspectives. It showed me how relevant theology is to all aspects of life.
Your theology studies have the potential to shape both who you are and what you do, just as it did with me.
