Specializations
Without Specialization
At Acadia Divinity College, we give you flexibility! If you’re not quite sure which area of specialization you wish to pursue, the Without Specialization stream provides you with the opportunity to explore all areas of ministry and discover your passion.
Should you choose, you may convert to a specialization in your second year of study. Without Specialization also provides greater options in electives, equipping you with a more general degree in multiple aspects of ministry.
