Applicants to our MDiv, MTS, MTSD, Certificate, and Diploma programs are required to provide answers to the following questions (usually 200-500 words long):

1. What experiences have you had in Christian service? In what ways, if any, have they helped you grow in your faith and sense of vocation?

2. What strengths do you believe you have?

3. Of what personal weaknesses are you aware?

4. What have been your most important formative experiences and relationships in your Christian life?

5. In your judgment, does your academic record accurately reflect your ability? If not, why not?

6. The Professional Graduate Degree program involves rigorous academic training, direction in personal and spiritual growth, regular chapel worship, participation in and contribution to the Wycliffe community, and - for Master of Divinity students - supervised pastoral experience. Please indicate why you feel you are ready for this program.
