Admissions Requirements

A master’s degree in education or related fields from other accredited institutions will be accepted for the doctor of education program at Southeastern. Admission requires a minimum 3.25 GPA requirement in addition to an acceptable score on the MAT. However, for those students who did not have biblical studies in their graduate program, a biblical core of 12 hours will be required prior to matriculation in the second year of the program.

The biblical studies core consists of 12 hours of New Testament survey (three hours), Old Testament survey (three hours), systematic theology (three hours) and Baptist history (three hours). The same option applies to the statistics requirement. Those students lacking course work in Christian education may be given additional requirements.

A fourth requirement is the successful completion (minimum grade of B) of a graduate-level class in statistics in order to fulfill the language requirement and assure adequate preparation for the course in statistics included in the program.

Other requirements are listed in the full application phase of the application process.
