Entry requirements

The Rinker School offers two master’s degree pathways. The M.C.M. requires 30 semester hours of coursework, plus 6 semester hours of leveling courses for students who do not hold an undergraduate degree in Construction Management accredited by the American Council for Construction Education (ACCE). The M.S.C.M. also requires 30 semester hours of coursework, plus 6 semester hours of leveling courses for students who do not hold an undergraduate degree in Construction Management accredited by the American Council for Construction Education (ACCE) . Further details regarding both degrees are found at https://dcp.ufl.edu/rinker/academics/cm/masters/ . Combination program: The Rinker School participates in a combination degree program between the Bachelor of Science in Construction Management (B.S.C.M.) and the Master of Science in Construction Management (M.S.C.M.). The program allows partic University-wide graduate admission (not specific to this programme): application through the UF graduate application; official GRE scores are required by most programmes (GMAT for MBA applicants), per programme; transcripts, a CV or resume and letters of recommendation where the programme requires them.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate applicants apply through the UF graduate school application on CollegeNET and pay a $30 non-refundable application fee; the Office of Admissions does not offer an application fee waiver. Deadlines vary by department. Most applicants must submit GRE scores, all MBA applicants must submit GMAT scores, and some engineering programmes accept the Fundamentals of Engineering exam instead of the GRE.
