Apply

Here in the Admissions Office our priority is to accompany each applicant along the path of discernment, and we would invite you to give us a call at any point during the application process.

In order to allot adequate time to process your application and for you to get settled and get all of your questions answered before the term starts, please complete your application by the deadline listed below. The processing time for applications varies, but once your application is complete, the average length of time is two weeks. You may apply up until the week before classes begin, but your space is not ensured, and you may be asked to defer to the following semester.

Thank you, and we look forward to receiving your application. Please do not hesitate to contact the Office of Admissions with questions regarding the application process.

Application Requirements

Our Admissions Committee seeks prospective students who demonstrate both an academic and spiritual readiness to complete a master’s degree in theology.

Our minimum requirement is a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. Pre-requisite coursework in theology is not required to apply. The committee also evaluates the candidate’s writing sample, transcript, letters of recommendation, and overall presentation of the application materials.

Applicants demonstrate the maturity of their faith through frequent involvement in the Church, ongoing education in the Faith (formal or informal), and letters of recommendation that testify to the candidate’s consistent life of Christian virtue and devotion.

The Admissions Committee also strives to affirm that the prospective students’ future goals are compatible with the educational pillars of the Augustine Institute.

International Applicants

In addition to the checklist requirements, foreign nationals must do one of the following:

Submit your TOEFL scores (Test of English as a Foreign Language) with your application (Note: The TOEFL is a very costly test).

Request that your admissions essay be considered as evidence of competency in the English language.

You will be evaluated on your English competency by the Admission’s Committee in order to determine your capacity for success in graduate studies. It is often the case that foreign nationals for whom English is a second language are recommended to pursue coursework on a non-degree seeking basis.

On Campus Applications
At this time, the Augustine Institute is not a SEVIS authorized school, and therefore is not authorized to issue the I-20 form, which is required for your student visa application. The Department of Homeland Security requires an information protocol on nonimmigrant students and exchange visitors to be collected during the course of their stay. Receiving a SEVIS authorization requires a great deal of resources and responsibility that we cannot afford at this time but may be able to achieve in the coming years as the graduate school grows.
