Because of the course sequencing, we prefer that all incoming students start in the fall. To be considered for funding, we encourage you to apply by February 15th.

We look at applicants as a whole package, including GPA, letters of recommendation, purpose statement, and fit for our program. As a general rule, a strong candidate will have a GPA of 3.0 or better and strong letters of recommendation.
An applicant must request an official transcript from the bachelor's degree institution and from each college or university attended following the bachelor's degree. If fewer than 60-70 hours were completed at the institution which awarded the bachelor's degree, an official transcript from the previous institution(s) is required as well. The department may require previous transcripts to verify prerequisites. The official transcript must be in a sealed envelope bearing the institution's return address with the Registrar's signature or stamp across the flap.
