4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of Northwestern St Paul

Program Overview

The department also offers a dual degree leading to an undergraduate major in Pastoral Ministry (B.S./B.A.) and a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) degree, a standard graduate degree for those pursuing pastoral ministry. This streamlined program saves time and money for pastoral students,reducing the typical 7 years of coursework to as little as 5 years. Qualified undergraduate students who are accepted into this program during their sophomore year complete up to 50% of the M.Div. degree within their undergraduate program. The remaining graduate degree courses are completed after graduating with the bachelor's degree. When completing the Master of Divinity, students are encouraged to pursue a concentration in Theological Studies, Organizational Leadership, Human Services, Educational Studies, or Clinical Pastoral Education. The accelerated M.Div. program requirements are listed following the Pastoral Ministries major description.
