Applicants without a bachelor’s degree in
religion or practical ministry areas may apply
for acceptance into the second level of
admission. This level requires up to 48 hours
for completion. The Director of Graduate Studies
in Religion may require as many as 12 hours of
work in biblical, theological, historical or
practical studies at the graduate level (500
level). The Director will prepare a plan of
courses for the applicant in order to make up
for any deficiencies in his/her religion
background. Students admitted at this second
level will take the same 36 hours as those
admitted at the first level, but will also take
courses along with these in order to provide a
deeper background in religious studies.
Additional application requirements:
-
Official undergraduate and graduate
transcripts of credit earned at all
institutions of higher education.
-
GRE (Graduate Record Exam) or MAT
(Miller Analogies Test) scores are required.
Scores must be sent to the office of
Graduate Studies in Religion and must be no
more than five years old.
-
Minimum G.P.A. of 3.0 in undergraduate
studies.
-
Two letters of reference from professors
familiar with your work and one personal
reference from your pastor or ministry
supervisor.
-
An essay of 1000 words (about 5 pages,
typed and double-spaced), which will provide
the Director and admissions committee with a
description of the candidate’s future
spiritual and academic goals.
-
$25.00 non-refundable application fee.
-
An interview, either by phone or in
person, with the Director of Graduate
