Interested in applying? General criteria are listed below. However, the requirements of individual programs may be higher. Refer to the Graduate Program Finder for specific requirements.

• a U.S. bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university or an equivalent degree from another country
• a minimum grade-point average (GPA) of 3.00 or foreign equivalent

Full graduate status may be granted to an applicant who meets the criteria discussed above.

Unclassified graduate status allows non-matriculated students to take courses for graduate credit when they have not been admitted into a graduate degree program. Should the student subsequently matriculate into a program, the number of credits a degree program accepts toward the degree requirements from the student under this classification ordinarily may not exceed 12 semester credits. Final determination of what credits are accepted will be made by the individual program.
