Admission Requirements Admission Requirements Admission to The Graduate School requires a Bachelor's degree with a satisfactory grade-point average from a college or university accredited by the appropriate regional accrediting agency or foreign equivalent. Admission to The Graduate School does not constitute acceptance into a specificdegree program or admission to candidacy for the degree desired. The Graduate School requires a minimum grade-point average of 2.7 out of a possible 4.0, or a 3.0 during the senior year of undergraduate study.
Many programs require a higher average.
An international student graduating from a U.S. institution must meet the same requirements as those for domestic students. An applicant whose GPA falls between 2.5 and 2.7 may be admitted on probation, upon recommendation of the academic unit. The probationary status will be removed after completion of nine or more hours of graduate credit with a minimum GPA of 3.0. Failure to maintain a 3.0 while in this status will result in dismissal from The Graduate School. An international student may not be admitted on probation.
