Overview

To be admitted to one of the Theology and Social Work dual degree programs at Boston University, a student must meet the entrance requirements of each school. MDiv/MSW and MTS/MSW require a 3.0 GPA.

Key facts

Applicants to these dual degrees should apply simultaneously to the School of Theology and the School of Social Work, preferably using the January 15 priority deadline to do so. This allows students to matriculate as a dual degree student from the start of their program.
