Welcome to our alumni community

At St Augustine’s, we are privileged to serve the Church’s mission by offering a profound and formative theological education.

But it’s our people—our students and alumni—who are the true heart and soul of our community.

Whether you joined us as an ordinand, lay reader or theology student, you are an irreplaceable part of St Augustine’s.

We look forward to supporting your continued friendship and formation, and as always, we hold you in our prayers.

Theology students enjoy a discussion in the grounds of Malling Abbey in Kent on an induction day.

Everyone deserves to follow their calling to study theology, whatever their financial situation.

As a member of our alumni community, you’ll understand more than anyone the value of studying theology.

As a college, we are dedicated to providing financial support to new and existing theology students; folks who would not be able to afford to study without financial aid. Alongside our own fundraising efforts, we rely on donations from our incredible college community to make this happen.

Help us ensure no one has to put aside their calling to study theology because of financial hardship. Donate to our student support fund today and uplift the next generation of theology scholars.

If you had a positive, formational, or spiritually stretching experience at Augustine’s College of Theology, we want to hear from you.
When someone is deciding where to train for ministry or study theology, they naturally want to hear from people who’ve been there, done that, and got the degree. By sharing stories from members of our incredible alumni community, we can celebrate what makes the college special – by listening to the people who know exactly what it’s like to study or train with us.
By sharing your experience of studying at St Augustine’s with us, you’ll be providing us with one of the most precious things we could ask for; your story.

Your experience as an alumnus of St Augustine’s is invaluable.

By signing up to be an alumni speaker, you’ll be donating your precious time and experience to inspire the next generation of St Augustine’s students.

One of the best ways to learn about what it’s like to study theology or train for ministry is to ask someone with first-hand experience. As an alumni guest speaker, you’ll be volunteering to chat with prospective students and (if you’re comfortable doing so) speaking at one or more of our taster events.

Sign up to become an alumni speaker and share your story.

As a member of our alumni or wider college community, we’re asking whether you might consider leaving a legacy gift in your Will for St Augustine’s student support fund.

To learn more about leaving a legacy to the college in your Will, please contact the team on 01732 252 656 or send an email to office@staugustinescollege.ac.uk.
