Three-Year Schedule

Completion of the MDiv in three academic years generally requires matriculating with all prerequisites met (two years of undergraduate Greek or NT 4030-4031; demonstration of English Bible competency through either passing the Standard Bible Content Test [both OT and NT portions] or completion of OT 5000 Introduction to the Old Testament and NT 5000 Introduction to the New Testament; generally these courses are available each summer), simultaneous enrollment in OT 5240 Elementary Hebrew and NT 5210 Greek Exegesis during the first semester, and an intense course schedule for the duration. The suggested sequence below accommodates prerequisite course requirements as noted in the Catalog course descriptions.
