Graduate / Professional Programs & Admission
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the GREs a requirement? Is there a possibility of waiving the test?
For the Accelerated BS/MS Program for Non-Nurse College Graduates Program, the GRE or Miller Analogies Test must be completed.
For all other programs, there is possibility of waiving the test. While the GREs are a requirement to be eligible for financial aid immediately, you may waive the exam by taking and receiving a B or better in your first two courses within the program. Almost all of our students elect to waive the GREs by pursuing the two courses.
Can I start the program at any semester, or is there only a September start date?
With the exception of the Accelerated BS/MS Nursing program (which only starts in the fall semester), you may start a graduate program any semester – Fall, Spring, Summer I (mid-May), or Summer II (late June).
What materials do I need to submit in order to complete my application?
We require a completed application form (available online or from the graduate admission office), one letter of recommendation (or two for nursing programs), official transcripts, GRE or Miller Analogies Test scores (or indication that you will be waiving exam checked on application), and a non-refundable application fee.
