Graduate Division Admission Policies

A student who holds a bachelor’s degree or equivalent by the time of matriculation (for prospective international students, a three- or four-year undergraduate degree from an institution of recognized standing) is eligible to apply for admission.  The student's previous academic record must give evidence of the ability and preparation necessary for successfully pursuing graduate study.  Each applicant is evaluated individually by the advising faculty, director, or chair of their respective program.  Some programs have additional admission criteria that applicants must meet.  Admission will be based on an evaluation of the applicant's potential for success in both the program and the profession.
