Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university, or the international equivalent, prior to beginning graduate study. Applicants to certain nursing programs may be considered with an associate's degree in nursing or the equivalent from an appropriately accredited institution. Successful applicants typically have a grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or better on a 4.0 scale in the last 60 hours or equivalent of undergraduate coursework. GPA alone does not guarantee admission. Applicants who have completed a minimum of nine (9) graduate credit hours or the equivalent will also have their graduate coursework evaluated.
