You should plan to apply at least a few months before you would like to begin classes. Since Wesley Seminary admits students on a "rolling" basis, it is important to have your application in as early as possible.
You will automatically be enrolled in the first course in your program once you are financially cleared. Please visit the "Accepted Students" page for more information.

Both the the Master of Divinity (M.Div.) and Master of Arts (MA) programs begin with a first year experience designed to prepare students with the knowledge and skills to succeed in their subsequent classes. Since the first year is the same for both programs, you have the ability to move from the MA to the M.Div. or vice-versa at the end of the first year. This gives you additional time to decide which program is right for you.

The MA in Ministry takes about two years to complete (36 credits). The M.Div. takes four years (75 credits) to complete. Both programs can be completed either totally online or through a mixture of online, onsite, and hybrid courses.

The Wesley Seminary Title IV code is 001822 (the same as the code for IWU).
