Admission Requirements

Applications may be submitted anytime, but enrollment only occurs at the beginning of the fall, spring or summer semesters.

In addition to meeting the requirements of the Graduate College, applicants must have a B.S. or D.V.M. or equivalent degree and a minimum cumulative grade point average equivalent to 3.0 (B average). GRE general test scores are required; however, the GRE test may be waived for master’s students if approved by the Graduate Education Committee. A minimum score of 213 (computer-based) in TOEFL is required of all applicants whose native language is not English, unless they hold a university degree from an institution whose instruction is in English.

Graduate College admission materials required include: official transcripts, TOEFL scores, three letters
of recommendation, a description of the nature of graduate work envisioned and a statement of long-term professional goals.
