Graduate School Admission Requirements

Admission decisions are individual, not class decisions, applicants may not be acceptable regardless of the institution from which credentials are submitted, if their preparation is not considered, in the judgment of the appropriate faculty and administration of this University, to be both adequate and appropriate. In addition, enrollment may be limited by the availability of faculty, staff and facilities. Therefore, it may not be possible to accommodate and admit all students who are otherwise qualified.

Admission is permitted for only one graduate degree program at a time. Concurrent admission is not permitted for undergraduate and graduate degrees. Applicants should review the specific departmental requirements for admission. Admission is subject to a favorable recommendation of a department and the concurrence of the Graduate Dean.

Students are responsible for inquiring of and meeting any written or unwritten departmental, school, college or University requirements for admission to a graduate program. Some of the more common requirements for admission as a regular or provisional graduate student are noted in the following sections.

To be granted admission the student must hold a 4-year baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution, or, at the discretion of the University , equivalent preparation in the field in which he or she wishes to do graduate study. Academic record is one indicator of such potential. A traditional standard is a B(3.00 on 4.00 scale) average or better for the last two years of undergraduate or graduate work.

Graduate Record Examination (GRE) The GRE is required of all students and must accompany their application materials. The Educational Testing Service must be instructed to forward official scores to the College of Graduate Studies.

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) The TOEFL is required of all students regardless of the medium of undergraduate instruction , unless English is the official language of the applicant's country or the applicant has graduated from a U.S. institution. The Educational Testing Service must be instructed to forward the official scores to the College of Graduate Studies.

Information regarding the GRE and the TOEFL may be obtained from:
