Admission requirements

Applicants with an undergraduate grade point average of 2.8 or higher will be considered for “clear” admission. If you have a grade point average between 2.5 and 2.8, you may be considered for probationary admission to the program.

In some cases, applicants with a grade point average below 2.5 will be considered for admission depending on other factors, such as work experience or GRE scores (GRE not required, considered only as alternative admission criteria).
