Graduate students should consult with individual programs to find out what the requirements for admission are in addition to the application to the graduate school. There is no application fee for graduate students.
Students applying for admission as freshmen will be granted admission if the have a 3.20 high school grade point average (on a 4.0 scale); have either a 2.50 grade point average or rank in the top 50% of their class, and score 16 or higher on the ACT or SAT equivalent; have a 2.00 high school grade point average and score 18 or higher on the ACT or SAT equivalent; or meet NCAA standards for students who are “full qualifiers” under Division I guidelines.
