Admission to graduate degree programs is competitive and typically based upon a combination of requirements that includes cumulative grade point average, program-specific admission tests, letters of recommendation and, in some cases, related experience outside the classroom. It is the student's responsibility to contact the graduate degree program for current information regarding requirements and application deadlines.
