Frequently Asked Questions

Where should I have my GRE scores sent?

As of March 1, 2023, we no longer require GRE scores to apply for our on-campus Ph.D. program.

When will admission decisions be made?

Admission decisions are made after the application deadline, typically within one to two months after the deadline.

What is an acceptable GPA?

A minimum grade point average of 3.0 upper-division (last 60 credits) undergraduate work.

If I miss this application deadline, when will I be able to apply again?

A new cohort of Higher Education On-Campus Ph.D. students begins each fall. The admissions deadline for the On-Campus Ph.D. program is generally in January of every year, to select the new cohort beginning in the following fall.

What is the cost of attending?

Will I be able to interact with my classmates and professors?

Courses are dynamic in nature. Given the relatively small size of the Ph.D. cohorts and classes, students get to know one another and their faculty well. Additionally, doctoral student meetings and socials are held every semester to help foster a community of scholars among the students and faculty. Students regularly research, publish, and present with faculty and one another.
