Master's International School of Divinity Admission Policy

ADMISSION POLICY & PROCEDURE

Application is usually made following a preliminary evaluation process. Each person who applies is given an opportunity for an individual evaluation consultation. By this process we determine qualifications for acceptance into a program of study. We have worked out a simple method of preliminary evaluation. Click HERE.
We are an "Open Admission" Divinity School. This means that we reserve the right to admit any qualified student. It also means that we do not discriminate against students because of their academic background.

As an International School of Divinity, we encourage applications from prospective students who live outside of the United States. Please note: 1. Because all of our programs are in English, prospective students must demonstrate acceptable English language skills prior to enrollment. 2. Prospective students must have adequate study resources (access to email, the internet, and postal support). 3. Since we bring the Divinity School to the student, we have no need to participate in the U.S. I-20 student visa program.
Entrance requirements are specific for each program. For example: To be accepted into the Master of Christian Studies program you must have a bachelor's degree. Click any of the following links to review entrance requirements: Undergraduate Degrees, Graduate Degrees. Please note: Application to an undergraduate program by persons not having previously earned college transfer credits will involve a careful review in order to assure placement in the most appropriate program. A high school diploma, GED or validation of comparable qualification will be required.
