The Graduate Management Admission Test is required in business. For all other programs the General Test of the Graduate Record Examination is required. The Test of English as a Foreign Language is required for applicants whose native language is not English. A minimum score of 550 is required except for the masters programs in business administration and communication studies where the minimum scores are 570 and 600, respectively. Normally such admission is for a limited time and will specify conditions which the applicant must fulfill to become a candidate for a master's degree.
Some programs have a fixed deadline for submission of all materials.
The graduate student who desires to change to a different degree program must submit a formal change of program application to the assistant to the academic vice president.
