MBTS offers 100% tuition scholarships for 105 first-year students

Midwestern Seminary has announced that full-tuition scholarships for first-year master’s students in For the Church Cohorts will be extended to incoming students in the 2025–26 academic year.

Through FTC Cohorts, residential master’s students receive faculty mentorship, focused community, and hands-on training in their chosen ministry area during their first year of seminary. For the 2025–26 year, 105 full-tuition scholarships are available for incoming students participating in FTC Cohorts.

‘Deeper discipleship, mentorship and equipping’

“I am very grateful to announce another year of fully funded FTC Cohorts,” said President Jason Allen. “These cohorts have proved to be an immense blessing to our students as they provide deeper discipleship, mentorship and equipping. In our increasingly secular world, those called to ministry need more training, not less. Our cohorts remove financial difficulties so that students can focus on their studies and being further equipped to serve the church. I look forward to welcoming this new class of cohort students to campus in the fall of 2025.”

FTC Cohorts launched in Fall 2022, originally offering a 50% tuition scholarship for each semester of a participant’s first year. Thanks to generous donors, the scholarships were expanded for the 2024–25 academic year to 100% tuition for two full-time semesters.

Allen said, “Oftentimes at Midwestern Seminary, we see God working when an opportunity for the institution aligns with donor support, a burden on their heart and a desire on our part to undertake a new ministry initiative.”
