Application information

Entry requirements

Apply to the UGA Graduate School and include the following: - Application form - Current resume/CV - Statement of purpose - Unofficial transcripts from all institutions attended - 3 letters of recommendation, which should be from individuals who can evaluate your scholarly ability and potential for success in a graduate program. The GRE is not required for acceptance into this program. Candidates are required to have a minimum 2.5 GPA on undergraduate or previous graduate work. Go to the Georgia Professional Standards Commission website for details. Applications will be evaluated by a committee of program faculty members. Although the program recommends at least a 2.5 undergraduate GPA, most applicants greatly exceed that. Those candidates whose undergraduate grades do not represent their future potential should use the essay portions of the application to make their case for admission. First round of admissions occurs on April 15 for Fall cohort start and October 15 for Spring Accelerated Cohort Start. The program does accept and consider additional applications beyond these dates b

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.
