Master of Divinity (MDiv)

The Master of Divinity (MDiv) is a professional degree for those preparing for careers in ministry and church leadership, social services and a variety of chaplaincy settings. It is available in a residential, in-person format with the majority of classes on campus in Atlanta or, beginning Fall 2023, a hybrid format with the majority of classes online.

The MDiv program fosters students’ understanding of church and ministry in the contemporary world and enhances their ability to work meaningfully and creatively in a vocation of religious leadership. It increases students’ knowledge and strengthens their capacity to integrate their understanding of the various disciplines of theology and ministry with their experience of God, the church, and the world.

All post-secondary education will include a Bachelor’s degree or its equivalent, as well as post-baccalaureate degrees and other coursework not undertaken for a degree.

Applicants whose native language is not English must submit official scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) as part of the application process. The minimum score is 600 (Paper-Based Total), or 250 (Computer-Based Test), or 95 (Internet-Based Total) with a minimum score of 21 or higher in each of the four sub-areas.
