The academic requirement for applicants for year 1 entry is as outlined in the Undergraduate section.
To progress to the third year of the MTheol, you must obtain an average of a 2.1 (B+) in the first two years of study and go through an internal admissions process; information about this is provided during the second year and progression into the third year is confirmed after the relevant meeting of the Assessment Board. To continue on to the fourth year of the MTheol, you will need to obtain an average of 8 or better for your third-year taught modules and a grade of at least 8 for your third-year short dissertation.
Direct entry is permitted into the third year of the MTheol programme. Applicants will normally be required to have a 2.1 in the equivalent of a DipHE, FdA or BA (Hons) Theology. Students wishing to take certain modules in Biblical Studies as part of their programme must demonstrate a proficiency in Greek or Hebrew at least to the standard of the pre-requisites identified for the relevant Oak Hill modules (as noted on the Module Narratives). Students specialising in Theology for Crossing Cultures should be able to provide evidence of cross-cultural studies or comparable practical experience, and should also have completed an overseas placement.
All applicants are required to meet both the academic and English language requirements to be considered for the programme.
The normal entrance requirement is a UK Honours degree in Theology (classified 2.2 or above). Normally, broader degrees in Religious Studies and other subjects will not provide an adequate grounding for this programme. Students without a degree in Theology may qualify for admission if they are able to demonstrate both academic ability and sufficient other theological background.
Students wishing to take certain modules in Biblical Studies as part of their programme must demonstrate a proficiency in Greek or Hebrew at least to the standard of the pre-requisites identified for the relevant Oak Hill modules.
