MASTER OF DIVINITY

     The Master of Divinity Degree is a balanced professional graduate degree program which is designed to prepare students for various ministries through comprehensive Biblical Studies and collateral supportive training course work.
In this program of studies, students may complete their degree program externally (off campus) while residing anywhere in the world, or on campus (in classroom) at CTU.

Curriculum Design
     The successful completion of ninety-six (96) semester credit hours is required for the Master of Divinity Degree. Each course on the Masters level at Conservative Theological University offers three (3) hours of credit. The core curriculum for the MDiv degree is a combination of Bible, theology and church ministries with a flexibility of other course selections.
     Students pursuing the MDiv Degree make course selections within the general frame-work of the requirements and electives, to enable them to meet their personal, pastoral, and academic goals.

Transfer Credit
     Students who have attended other qualified schools or seminaries may receive credit toward a CTU MDiv. At least 36 semester hours credit must be taken at CTU.

Prior Learning Assessment Credit (PLA)
      Students who have significant professional and or ministry experience may secure up to 30 semester hours credit toward a MDiv Degree through Bible content testing and the preparation of a PLA portfolio. This may be undertaken after application acceptance, by CTU guidelines, and with advisor guidance. (See general brochure for more information.)
