Multnomah University's Summit Program is a five-year program designed for students to complete both a Bachelor's and Master's degree on an accelerated timeline. It is intended for students seeking to enter the ministry field, with four options available depending on your educational and career goals. For detailed description of these four options, https://www.multnomah.edu/major/undergraduate-summit/.

Please note that acceptance to the seminary program is a separate decision from acceptance to the undergraduate program, but you will still apply to both programs at the same time using this application. Should you be accepted to pursue a Bachelor's degree but not accepted for the accelerated Summit Program, this decision will not prohibit you from pursuing a seminary degree with Multnomah at a later date under the normal timeline for degree completion.

International Students




An international student is one who will be attending a university in the United States without residency or citizenship, typically on an F-1 visa. International students have additional application requirements, which can be found here.  Please review the information carefully before you continue. 

Please note:

There are limited financial aid options for international students and as a general rule, if you cannot cover at least 80% of the cost through sponsorship or personal financial resources, it probably will not be possible for you to attend Multnomah

Additionally, we advise that all international students applying as residential students allow 6-8 months between the time they apply to Multnomah University and their intended first semester of studying on campus. This is to allow time for processing the proper documentation for you to apply for a visa.
