GPA GPA (In general, we require a 2.7 overall and a 3.0 GPA in your major.) RL Under the "References" section, you will be asked to name four different recommenders. Individuals listed as references cannot be related or engaged to you, the applicant. One form must be completed by your pastor. One form is to be completed by another church leader with whom you have worked in a ministry setting and who is capable of speaking to your potential as a minister. The remaining two forms are general and should be completed by other persons of your choice (professors, employers, or other church leaders) who can speak to your intellectual and/or personal abilities. After filling out each recommender’s contact information, click the green "Send Email" button. This will send an email to each of your references requesting a recommendation on your behalf. The request will include a link to a secure website where your recommenders will complete an evaluation form that will be automatically uploaded to your application. Transcript You may submit your official transcripts at any point during the application process. However, it is encouraged that you complete this requirement early as it can take a few weeks for transcripts to be received and processed. You must provide official transcripts from all colleges and/or universities from which you have received course credit in order to be considered for admission. For a transcript to be considered official, it must be sent directly to Truett Admissions from the issuing institution. Transcripts uploaded or submitted by the applicant are considered unofficial. Truett Seminary is happy to accept official, certified electronic transcripts at Truett_Admissions@baylor.edu. Official hard copy transcripts should be sent to: Office of Admission Services George W.
