SAT Sabbatical - School of Applied Theology

Admission to the SAT Program

SAT welcomes all applicants regardless of gender, race, color, national origin, religious affiliation or physical challenge. We believe that diversity enriches the SAT experience. Ordinarily a bachelor's degree is required for admission to the SAT Sabbatical. However, our experience shows that applicants with personal maturity and a desire to deepen their spirituality benefit from and contribute to the SAT program. Application materials can be downloaded or obtained by emailing admissions@satgtu.org.
