Student Financial Hardship Fund
During graduate school, unexpected events and circumstances arise for students that were unforeseeable
and unpredictable when they first began their seminary journey. This fund is established to support current
students through financial hardships that unexpectedly arise and have a potential impact on their
continuance. Recipient(s) can be an active full-time student or part-time student (as established by the
Seminary catalog) at Denver Seminary, enrolled in a Masters, Doctorate or PHD program, pursuing their
degree residentially or online. For more information or to inquire about the process, please visit the
sl.densem.edu website.
Ministry Residency Program
The Ministry Residency Program connects Seminary students with paid internships at churches and non-
profits. Students take on part-time roles (usually between 10-30 hours a week) that provide practical,
hands-on experience for the student while they advance the vision and mission of the organization.
Participating churches and non-profits compensate the student through tuition donations, with the
possibility of an additional taxable stipend depending on the amount of hours worked. More information
about the Residency Program and any open positions may be found at the Denver Seminary website.
Discounted Professional Counseling Services
Several local professional Christian counselors along the Front Range have agreed to provide a limited
number of sessions for seminary students and their immediate family members at a discounted rate. The
identities of those who inquire about counseling services will remain confidential. More information can
be found on the Student Life website or by emailing the Student Life Office.
