Saint Louis University's certificate in foundations of Christian service is designed to provide you with basic philosophical, theological, and interdisciplinary tools for intelligent reflection on contexts of Christian ministry.
The certificate is open to consecrated religious and laypersons engaged in ministry or who envision a future in ministry. Students pursuing this certificate are not eligible to receive Title IV financial aid.
Find out from your admission counselor what secondary credentials are required. We’ll evaluate how you’ve done in school up to this point, so please send all transcripts for secondary work, along with their English language translations.
These are scores from any standardized test you may have taken to prepare for college — TOEFL, IELTS, PTE, SAT, ACT or Duolingo score. All of our international applicants are required to demonstrate their English proficiency, and these tests can help us make that determination.
If you do not meet SLU’s direct entry requirements, we encourage you to apply to the Pathway or English Language programs offered by INTO Saint Louis University.
Though not required for admission, submission of a resume of activities and letters of recommendation is encouraged. All undergraduate applicants are also encouraged to complete an admission interview.

Course requirements (15-18 credits) are designed for flexibility, with a view to matching your background needs and ministerial interests. All course requirements may be satisfied with undergraduate courses.
The certificate presupposes a bachelor's degree or concurrent work toward a bachelor's degree. Specific certificate prerequisites depend on the particular student's needs, background, and specific program focus, but in general, at least one introductory course in theology or sacred scriptures is helpful.
For priority consideration for graduate assistantship, apply by Feb. 1.
