In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy of Act of 1974 (FERPA), as amended, Winebrenner Theological Seminary is restricted from releasing student information of any nature to third parties, with the exception of “directory” information (such as name, address, phone, email address, age, gender, ethnicity, spouse, denomination, church, program, and anticipated date of completion) which may be disclosed without the student’s knowledge. Students must complete the release form naming who, if anyone, should have access to information. Students will not be permitted to register until this form is submitted.
You may register by contacting Dr. Bruce Coats at 419-434-4200 or bcoats@winebrenner.edu. Please note that a $30 Late Registration Fee is charged to returning students who register for fall after August 1, for spring after December 1, and for summer after April 1.
All students must have a UFNet account. When you fill in the UFNet form, you must select Winebrenner Theological Seminary as your institution. Do NOT select The University of Findlay. Here is the link: http://www.findlay.edu/offices/informationtechnology/Pages/UFnet-Account-Agreement.aspx
It is your responsibility to download your syllabi each term. The syllabi are stored on the Canvas system and can be retrieved after you create a UFNet account. Syllabi are available on Canvas here.
Students are responsible for purchasing their own textbooks as listed in the class syllabi. Some suggested sites are www.amazon.com or www.christianbook.com.
The Student Handbook, describing policies regarding Winebrenner students, can be found on Canvas, once your UFNet account has been created.
Winebrenner tuition and fees are invoiced to students 30-days prior to the beginning of class. Tuition and fees are payable at the time of registration or prior to the first day of class. A deferred payment plan may be arranged with the Business Office (419-434-4224). Finance charges of 1.5% per month will be added to the unpaid balance each month. Your account must be paid in full prior to registration for the next term (mid June for fall registration, mid November for spring registration and mid March for summer registration), receiving grades, and requesting transcripts.
Fees may be included depending upon individual course requirements (assessments, retreats, etc.).
To request a refund from your student account, contact Student Accounts at 419-434-4208. Checks will be mailed (USPS) to the primary address of the student.
