Empowering leaders for transformational ministry
centered in compassion, justice and love.
Welcome to Dickerson-Green Theological Seminary at Allen University!
Allen University was established with faith and courage in 1870 in Cokesbury, South Carolina. This esteemed institution found its new home in Columbia just a decade later. On a memorable Christmas Eve in 1880, the State of South Carolina graciously bestowed upon us a charter, empowering the university and its dedicated trustees to provide enriching educational programs. An integral part of our proud legacy is the Dickerson Seminary, established in the very same year we moved to Columbia. In a nod to evolving times and expanding academic horizons, it transformed into the Dickerson-Green Theological Seminary in 2018, extending its expertise to offer graduate-level programs. Join us in our journey of knowledge, growth, and tradition!
