Campus Life

Worship is an integral part of the life of Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. In addition to mid-day worship services, a number of prayer and Bible study groups meet regularly on campus. All master’s-level students are members of the Student Association which conducts student social and extracurricular activities. A number of organizations enrich student life, including the Association of Women at the Seminary (AWS), NIA (African American Student Fellowship), Evangelical Student Fellowship (ESF), Peace and Justice Fellowship, the Preaching Association, Seminary Choir, Sports and Recreation, and several denominational fellowships. Athletic events and other recreational activities are available.

An on-campus fitness center is available for student use. Highland Park provides walking trails, open fields, and playgrounds. Recent campus activities have also included tournaments in ping-pong, bowling, ultimate Frisbee, and golf.  Worship, fellowship, and play—common life—is at the heart of the educational experience at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. This life shared together lays the foundation for lasting friendships which in turn build bridges of collegiality and mutual support among pastors and church leaders.
