Application Process

Three Steps

A three-step admission process is used for screening applicants:

1. A faculty member in the student's area of specialization reviews the application materials for completeness.

2. Once the application is complete, an interview with two faculty members is conducted.

3. The Doctoral Review Council approves or disapproves the application and makes its recommendations to the dean.

Special Student Status (Non-degree-seeking and provisionally accepted)

You may be permitted to take two doctoral courses (6 credits) on the basis of a signed application and proof of a master's degree from a regionally accredited institution of higher education, with the approval of the specialization coordinator.
