Accreditation Notes: 
The Board of Commissioners approved a modified-residency PhD program (February 2010) and further exceptions to residency requirements, thereby allowing the school to offer the MDiv, MA in Practical Theology, and ThM completely online (June 2015) and to deliver the MA in Spiritual Formation (formerly the MA in Christian Spirituality and Formation) in hybrid format (June 2016). In June 2016, the Board also allowed online instruction to fulfill residency requirements for the DMin; initially approved as a three-year experiment, the Board has since granted ongoing approval (June 2019).
