More to the point of the thread...If I lived in Atlanta, felt called to the ministry, felt called specifically to teach, and was Southern Baptist, I would think the NOBTS extension is a no-brainer for three reasons:
1)Cost.
2)To teach, one needs an advanced degree anyway. It matters little where one did his or her Masters degree.
3)Given the ratio of PhD grads to available teaching positions, a well-rounded M.Div could prove valuable should the search for a teaching position take a year or two longer than expected.

Hmmm, those are some good points, especially point #3. Even though an MDiv takes longer to complete than an MA or MATS, it may help me in the long run. Thanks for that point of view.
