Graduate Admission Process and Requirements

GRADUATE ADMISSION PROCESS AND REQUIREMENTS

The following criteria are used to determine admission for graduate level students. Certain programs have additional specific criteria for admission. Refer to the respective section in this catalog for any additional requirements.

Graduate Students must meet the following requirement:

1. Have completed a baccalaureate degree or higher, and seeking to enter a graduate program at Presentation College.

Graduate Students must follow these steps to complete the process:

1. Submit an application for admission found at www.presentation.edu/admission/apply/
2. Submit all official* college or university transcripts. Graduate Students must have a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 on a 4.00 scale once all transcripts are received.
3. Submit the non-refundable application fee of $35.
4. Submit two professional letters of reference (one from a supervisor/manager, one from a professional such as teacher or professor).
5. Submit a statement of purpose (discuss intellectual interests, relevant clinical experience, and reasons for pursuing a graduate degree at Presentation College)

If students are currently enrolled at another institution, partial transcripts may be submitted and considered for provisional admission until the final official transcripts arrive. Please contact the Admissions Office regarding transcript evaluations. All credits attempted (except remedial courses) will be calculated into the admission GPA.

*Options for official transcript submission:

• Paper transcripts can be accepted as official provided they are either mailed or personally delivered to the Admissions Office in the original, sealed envelope from the school.
• Electronic transcripts can be accepted as official provided they are emailed directly from the school or are submitted via an electronic transcript service to the Admissions Office via the domain @presentation.edu

All records submitted, filed, and accumulated in the Admissions and Registrar's Offices become the property of the College.

Upon receipt of these items, the Admissions Office will notify the graduate committee of the completed application, and then will inform the applicants of acceptance, provisional acceptance, probationary acceptance, or denial of acceptance into the College.
