Key facts

The Master of Divinity degree is offered as both a 3-year residential program and a 4-year fully online program. Students can anticipate taking 13 hours each semester in the residential program and 6-7 hours each semester in the online program.
The M.Div. at McAfee emphasizes academic rigor and practical ministry experience. Core areas of focus include: Biblical Studies, Historical/Theological Studies, Global and Cultural Studies, Moral and Spiritual Formation Studies, and Ministerial and Public Leadership.
With an 8 to 1 student to faculty ratio, McAfee faculty offer students personal attention as they pursue their degree and prepare for a life of vocational ministry.
A unique feature of the M.Div. degree at Mercer University is a series of ministerial formation courses across the program designed to cultivate capacities for leading. Students engage in faculty-guided peer learning and reflection in small groups, sharing out of their diverse backgrounds and vocational goals and building relationships throughout the academic year. Each year has a particular focus for student formation: the first year focuses on spiritual formation, the second year on vocational formation, and the final year on ministerial integration.
