Abstract: This study is a catalogue study of the business offerings and graduation requirements of the colleges of the Presbyterian Church, U. S. For clarification of the scope involved, a brief explanation is here presented to make clear the distinction between the Presbyterian Church, U. S. and the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A. In 1801, the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America united with the Congregational Church. In 1837 there was a severance of this relation resulting in two branches known as the "Old School" section and the "New School" section. It was from the "Old School" body that the synods of the South withdrew in the opening year of the Civil War, becoming known as "The Presbyterian Church in the Confederate States of America." At the close of the Civil War the title was changed to "The Presbyterian Church in the United States" or "The Presbyterian Church, U. S." Although it is popularly called "The Southern Presbyterian Church," its official name is "The Presbyterian Church, U. S." The "Old School" is now called "The Presbyterian Church in the United States of America." In the South it is called "The Northern Presbyterian Church."
