Chad Cowan
Admissions Counselor
BS, Electrical Engineering, West Virginia Institute of Technology, 1998; ThM, Pastoral Ministry, Dallas Theological Seminary, 2010
Worked in Admissions since: May 2010
I’ve often said that after my salvation, and my marriage, DTS has been one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I graduated from DTS in spring of 2010 with the ThM in Pastoral Ministries, and it has been an incredible journey. If you’re ready to begin your journey at DTS, please don’t hesitate to give us a call, and we’ll help you find what program best fits the direction the Lord is directing you!
While I’ve been awestruck by the sheer amount of knowledge my professors have demonstrated, it has been there walk with the Lord outside the classroom that has taught me the most. Their willingness to share valuable time outside the classroom with me has impacted me deeply, perhaps even more than what they have shared from behind the lectern.
I encourage you to take that first step and give us a call today!
