We offer a master degree in Divinity at the Hellenic College Holy Cross. MDiv candidates develop knowledge, sensitivity, and faithfulness to the Church’s liturgical life through daily worship.

Directed formation opportunities and supervised field education connect classroom learning to real-life experience. MDiv graduates become priests, deacons, theologians, chaplains, religious educators, youth ministers, or pursue further graduate studies in a variety of disciplines.
