Admissions

Readmission

Persons seeking readmission to the Divinity School's degree programs must complete the following requirements:

  1. submit a new application
  2. submit an additional statement detailing reasons for withdrawal, reasons for seeking readmission at this time, and describing activities and employment since withdrawal
  3. submit the names of at least three reference writers, to be contacted by the student, one of whom must be an ecclesiastical official
  4. submit official transcripts of all academic work since withdrawal from the Divinity School

These new materials, supplemented by the individual's original application and Divinity School academic and field education files, will be reviewed by the members of the Admissions Committee for an admission decision. An interview with the director of admissions prior to the processing of the application for readmission is encouraged and may be required.

Any questions about readmission procedures should be addressed to the director of admissions. Applications for readmission will be evaluated on the basis of academic attainment, future promise for the ministry, and vocational clarity and commitment.
