•                      (1)  A bachelor’s degree or its equivalent from an acceptably accredited college or university.  International applicants must have their complete academic records (transcripts, mark sheets, certificates) evaluated by one of the following professional credential evaluating services:

•                     WORLD EDUCATION SERVICES (WES) (www.wes.org)

Or

EDUCATIONAL CREDENTIAL EVALUATORS, INC. (ECE) (www.ece.org)

Applicants should request WES or ECE to forward the evaluation results directly to the Clarion University Graduate Admissions Office.  In addition, you are required to  submit copies of the same items (transcripts, mark sheets, certificates) in the original language AND a certified English translation using the same format.  These documents also should be forwarded to the Clarion University Graduate Admissions Office.  Please note that evaluations must be received directly from WES or ECE; unofficial copies will not be accepted.   Individuals who have not yet completed the baccalaureate degree may send transcripts for course work completed in the original language AND a certified English translation, along with application materials.  However, the WES or ECE evaluation of final transcripts, mark sheets, and/or certificates showing the completion of the course work and the degree will be required.

•                      (2)  A minimum quality-point average of 2.75/4.00 scale at the undergraduate level.  Some programs require a higher undergraduate quality-point average.  Please review the program admission requirements listed on the “Checklist for Completion of Graduate Application.”

Individuals not meeting the quality-point average requirement of a graduate program may be eligible for regular admission when the lower quality-point average is evaluated in terms of supplementary factors, including recommendations, examination scores on such instruments as the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), and/or the Miller Analogies Test (MAT), or achievement in graduate-level course work.  Information regarding the GRE, GMAT, or MAT may be obtained from the Division of Graduate Studies.

Applicants should refer to the admission requirements on the enclosed “Checklist for Completion of Graduate Application.”  Also, applicants should follow the directions outlined on the “General Information on Procedures for Applying to Clarion University Graduate Programs” sheet.
