Application: Form, Tips and Policy
Application Tips
Our programs are selective, and as such we recommend applicants write at least 2-3 pages single spaced for each of the first two application questions (reasonable account of my life and spiritual autobiography). Highlight key moments and events that enhance, limit, inform and impact how you provide spiritual care or imagine learning to offer spiritual care through our program.
It can be beneficial to have a mentor or colleague review your application prior to it being submitted, as they may be able to make suggestions based on the ACPE application questions or their experience. Be sure to review the bold as well as italicized aspects of the ACPE application instructions.
Plan to submit your application well in advance, near or before the time that the rolling application review begins, to have the strongest opportunity to be successful.
If you are not selected, you are welcome to revise your application and re-submit for a future unit.
Applications can be submitted electronically to the email address below (fewer attachments is preferable) or via US mail.
