How Many Schools is Enough? MDiv Applicant

Simply, how many schools is enough for an MDiv applicant? Obviously our admission rates are higher than a PhD applicant.

 

As is, I have 5 (6 depending on my mood) prospective schools I'm looking at. However, truth be told, I have 3 that if accepted and financial aid worked out, I'd take over any others.

 

My top three:

 

Yale

Vanderbilt

Iliff

 

My larger list:

 

Yale

Vanderbilt

Iliff

Emory/Candler

Union Theological

Princeton Theological

MDiv acceptance rates are overall pretty high, so I think 5 or 6 is plenty. If you even moderately competitive, I suspect you will be admitted to your top three (i.e. GPA above 3.5, good letters, and a solid SOP).
