Maestría en Estudios Litúrgicos (MALS)
The Master of Arts in Liturgical Studies (MALS) program at the University of Saint Mary of the Lake (USML) is the same as the MAL program, and it is designed for those who plan to work at parish, diocesan, or secondary education levels. In addition to the MAL program, the MALS is considered an “academic” degree. It requires reading knowledge of Latin and one modern foreign language and writing an academic thesis. This program may be completed online over two academic years, on campus over five summers, or part-time.
The MALS is a prerequisite to attaining your PhD, and successful completion of the MALS opens the possibility of further studies at the PhD level. With the MALS, you will immerse yourself in a dedicated community that fosters in-depth learning and spiritual formation in the rich Catholic tradition.

The language requirements are completed in one of three ways.
- Presenting transcripts showing completion of 6 semester hours of the relevant language, with at least an A- average, taken within the last ten years.
- Pass a USML language translation exam.
- Complete six credits of the relevant language at Mundelein Seminary (if offered) with at least an A- average.
Requisitos previos
- Bachelor’s degree in any field and a 3.0 GPA for admission.
- Lo habitual es haber completado una licenciatura. Sin embargo, se puede considerar la admisión de los estudiantes en función de la evaluación de sus conocimientos previos.
