Andover Newton Theological School is the predecessor of Andover Newton Seminary at Yale Divinity School and a graduate school and seminary, affiliated with the American Baptist Churches USA and the United Church of Christ. It was located in Newton, Massachusetts and was the product of a merger between Andover Theological Seminary and Newton Theological Institution. In recent years, it was an official open and affirming seminary, meaning that it was open to students of same-sex attraction or transgender orientation and generally advocated for tolerance of it in church and society.
