Admission Process
Since the Master of Transformative Ministry program begins with an online course in May of each year, all application materials must be received by Point University no later than April 15.
After all required items are received, Point’s graduate admission committee evaluates the application and notifies students of their admission status. If needed, the committee may request additional information to evaluate the applicant’s readiness for graduate studies.
Applicants are encouraged to begin and complete the admission process as soon as possible since enrollment is limited. Adequate time must be given for other institutions to send transcripts and documentation to the Admission Office. Failure to receive all official transcripts delays processing of an application.
