User:NapoliRoma/Graduate of Theology

Graduate of Theology (ThG) is an undergraduate degree in theological disciplines offered by some accredited and unaccredited schools. Although the definition varies by institution, it is often a 3-year course of study.

The ThG has in the past been used as a perfunctory way to confer a degree to someone who has no other post-high-school certification. In the 1940s, Western Bible College in Canada in association with Central University (now University of Indianapolis) arranged for attendees to obtain a ThG with no extra work beyond a high school diploma.

The ThG degree should not be confused with postgraduate degrees in theology such as Master of Divinity.
