Graduate Admission

Admissions is the process by which a student submits a completed application, sends official transcripts and fulfills all admission requirements for a specific degree program. Admission into a graduate degree program occurs when the application process is complete. A student will either be granted or denied program admission if the student meets all admission requirements. After receiving program admission, the student may then proceed to register for and take classes.
