Entry requirements

The precondition of a good Masters degree applies for admission to the MSt (Res). But if applicants to the MSt (Res) do not have a good Masters degree and are not currently working towards one, the School of Divinity will consider admission if they have any of the following: a first-class undergraduate degree (or one with an A-range grade point average or the equivalent) in the relevant discipline; a writing sample and research proposal that the admissions committee judges to be equivalent to Masters-level work; other substantial evidence that convinces the application committee that the applicant is capable of research at the Masters level.
