Reviews by the faculty are continuous and there is no application deadline. Applications require a two-page statement of career goals, three letters of reference, and transcripts from previous undergraduate work. The statement of career goals should specifically address how this degree program will assist the candidate in furthering his/her skills and knowledge and applying them in the future.

The faculty review of applications generally takes on to two weeks. Major delays usually occur due to incomplete applications or insufficient information. International students are encouraged to apply early in order to be able to handle passport, visa, etc. issues in a timely manner. Potential students with limited English abilities are encourages to examine the application options available through the University’s Center for International Education. In many cases, students may be admitted to an academic program but begin their studies in the Intensive English Program.
