However, those who want to be eligible for merit scholarships must complete an interview prior to the January 15 deadline for merit scholarship consideration. Interviews may be scheduled online anytime after starting your application, and we encourage applicants to schedule their interviews early in the process as slots fill up quickly.

Reapplication Guidelines
Each year many highly qualified people apply for admission to Princeton Theological Seminary. Unfortunately, it is impossible to admit them all, and we must make some very difficult decisions. If an unsuccessful applicant is still interested in applying, they should following the guidelines below.
Master’s degree applicants who applied and were not admitted may reapply beginning with the next admissions cycle. In this case, the Admissions Committee would require a new application, academic transcript(s) from any school(s) attended since your last application, a new letter of endorsement, and one new recommendation.
We strongly suggest a person who is reapplying arrange for an interview and/or a campus visit. Please note, the faculty only allows a maximum of two admissions attempts.
