Application information

Entry requirements

The application deadline falls in January. See Graduate School application for specific date. Candidates who lack the necessary undergraduate hours in history must take graduate-level classes in history to remedy that deficiency before they can be considered for admission. They should consult with the director of graduate studies about appropriate classes. Graduate School regulations prohibit a non-degree student from taking more than twelve hours of course work. Candidates must achieve a grade point average in these classes of at least 3.3 on a 4.0 scale to be considered for admission.

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 and online programmes bill for Summer, Fall and Spring terms; each programme sets its own application requirements and deadlines, which are programmed into the application for admission.

Degree-seeking graduate applicants pay a non-refundable application fee of $75 (U.S. citizens and permanent residents) or $100 (nonresident internationals); graduate certificate and non-degree applicants pay $40. Applications are valid for three semesters after the original application term.

Graduate programmes apply through the Graduate School online application for admission, which requires a qualifying bachelor degree and at least a 3.0 GPA in the last 60 hours of baccalaureate coursework; School of Law, School of Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine and Occupational Therapy Doctorate have their own application processes.
