Student life

 At the RTA you will join a learned fellowship, at the heart of which is an intimate Christian student community. The Dean: Student and Community Life is responsible for the wellbeing and interests of our students. The RTA offers annually a two-day orientation programme for new students.

 

Central to our student life is the Theological Student Association. The Association not only represents student’s interests but participates in the academic programme of the RTA. Apart from an annual program, the TSA is also responsible for the publication Golden Chandelier – Goue Kandelaar. At the students’ disposal is a cafeteria and second-hand bookshop on campus.

At the end of the year students who study to become ministers in the GKSA/RCSA are promoted to the next Candidates year. The Final years receive their Candidates certificate. They may now present it to their Regional synod, which will make a decision whether to admit them to be eligible to serve as a minister in the GKSA/RCSA. After this they prayerfully await a calling to a congregation of the GKSA/RCSA. Some of these students ask for permission to further their studies in service of the church.
