Why NOBTS?

New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and Leavell College prepare servants to walk with Christ, proclaim His truth, and fulfill His mission.

Distinctiveness 

NOBTS blends scholarship, practicality, accessibility, and a sense of urgency-all of which make ministry training at New Orleans unmatched. As a major port city, New Orleans is home to people from across the globe, but only a small minority identify as evangelical Christians. As you train for a lifetime of ministry at NOBTS, we encourage you to get your hands dirty in a city that is in desperate need of the gospel.

 

Accessible

NOBTS is wherever you are-whether you are in New Orleans, at an extension center, or completely online. We understand that our students are at different places in life and may need to study in different ways. No matter your circumstances, you can still get the theological training you need to follow God’s calling in your life.

Affordable

Where value meets affordability. We offer generous financial aid through discounts, scholarships, employment opportunities, flexible payment schedules, and various programs. We’ll do our best to help you answer God’s call.
