M.A. in Theology at Saint Leo University
Outcomes. Saint Leo's M.A. in Theology is grounded in the Catholic Benedictine tradition and genuinely welcoming to students of all faith backgrounds. The 36-credit curriculum works through the questions that have occupied theologians for centuries, from Christology and theological anthropology to moral theology and pastoral leadership. Graduates serve as lay pastoral ministers, religious educators, deacons, chaplains, and theology teachers, and the degree prepares you for doctoral study, including Saint Leo's own Th.D. in Applied Theology.
Flexibility. Coursework is 100% online and asynchronous, with optional live evening sessions that connect you with faculty and peers. Semesters run 16 weeks with fall, spring, and summer entry points, and you can pace the program around your ministry, work, and family life.
Support. With full-time faculty who are both scholars and practitioners and intentionally small classes, this is a program built on personal engagement. The application is free, no GRE is required, and there's no commitment until you register.
