Juris Doctor and Master of Science in Divinity with Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary

As a joint venture, the Brandeis School of Law and the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary offer a dual degree program leading to both a JD and MDiv degree. Applicants interested in this program should contact the Theological Seminary, as several options are available. Students are required to take at least 81 hours (instead of the usual 90) in the School of Law and 63 hours in the Seminary (instead of the normal 90). Nine of the 63 hours in the Seminary must be in courses approved by the law school. Those nine hours of approved coursework from the Master of Divinity program can be counted as electives in the School of Law. Applicants must be admitted independently to both the School of Law and the Master's program at the Seminary. Students must also be admitted to the dual degree program by each school.
