2011-2012 Graduate Catalog

Master’s Admission

Each applicant to a master's degree program must possess a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited college or university and have a grade point average of 3.00 or better [on a 4.00 point scale] on the most recent 60 semester hours.

If someone is recommended for admission who does not meet the Graduate School standard, a rationale must be provided stating the factors which were considered in recommending the student: GPA in the discipline, maturity, letters of recommendation, samples of their work, GRE scores or other compelling factors. All recommendations for admission below the 3.00 will be reviewed by the Graduate Dean or his/her designee.
