Academic Preparation and Admission Requirements
Applicants to the Clinical Program are required to have a bachelor’s degree from a college or university accredited by the appropriate regional accrediting agency or foreign equivalent and to take the GRE general exam. The Graduate Council requires a minimum grade point average of 2.7 out of a possible 4.0, or a 3.0 during the senior year of undergraduate study. Applicants with previous graduate work must have a grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale or equivalent on all graduate work. Average GRE scores and grade point averages are posted on our website under the heading “Program Statistics”. In general, most of our students have GRE combined verbal and quantitative scores of over 1200 and undergraduate GPA’s over 3.5. A Master’s degree is not required for admission into our doctoral programs; however, students who hold Master’s degrees are encouraged to apply to our doctoral programs.
