Graduate Admission Requirements 

Applicants to graduate degree programs or post-baccalaureate professional programs must meet minimum University admission requirements.
Individual programs may set additional criteria or more selective requirements. Consequently meeting minimum University admission requirements does not guarantee admission to a particular program. Refer to the college/program regarding additional admission requirements.

Minimum University Admission Requirements

Students must:

  • Have a bachelor’s degree or equivalent from a regionally accredited institution or equivalent foreign institution.
  • Present an official standardized admission test score, if required. (Refer to the college/program description for approved standardized tests.)

Meet at least one of the following criteria:     

  • Have a minimum GPA of 3.0 or greater (on a 4.0 scale) for the last 60 hours of the baccalaureate degree. No entrance exam is required unless the GPA is less than 3.0.If the GPA is less than 3.0, then an applicant must have a minimum entrance score on the Graduate Record Exam (GRE), Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), or Miller Analogies Test (MAT) as set by the program.
  • Have a graduate degree from a regionally accredited institution or equivalent foreign institution. An international applicant who is from a country where English is not the primary language must submit a minimum TOEFL score of 550 (paper-based test) or 213 (computer-based test) or 79 (internet-based test) unless otherwise specified by the program.

 Meeting minimum University and program criteria does not guarantee admission into a specific graduate program.
