2017-2018 Graduate Bulletin

Criminal Justice, Master of Arts

A minimum undergraduate cumulative grade point average of 3.0 and higher ("B") is required. An applicant who meets the admission requirements, except for the course in Statistics can be accepted on the condition this undergraduate requirement is completed during the first year of the program. If you are applying to the Master of Arts in Criminal Justice Program, please note that the Admissions Committee for this program seeks students whose record of performance at the undergraduate level and whose writing skills indicate they are likely to do well in graduate school. While the Committee understands that a variety of factors can influence undergraduate grades, applicants whose grade point average is below 3.0 are rarely accepted. Applicants whose GPAs exceed this average should not, however, assume that they will automatically be admitted.
