   in the field of education.


7. An interview via teleconference with members of the Admissions Committee (Interview to follow a structured interview procedure). The Office of Admissions will contact the student once an application is completed and submitted to the University. The Office of Admissions will review the application materials and inform the
   applicant in writing as to acceptance into the University and desired program of study. If, for any reason an applicant is not accepted, all monies are refunded with the exception of the application fee.

Provisional Admission

A student may be granted provisional admission for several reasons:

1. The undergraduate cumulative GPA is below a 3.00 but above a 2.50 on a 4.00 scale. The student may take
   up to nine (9) credit hours as a provisional student at the end of which time the student must achieve a
   3.00 GPA or higher. Upon achieving a GPA of 3.00 or higher, the student will be granted full admission status.


2. Pending the receipt of official transcripts or one of the two required letters of recommendation.
   Upon the receipt of official transcripts or the second letter of recommendation, the student will
   be removed from provisional admission status granted that the student's undergraduate GPA is a 3.00 or
   higher.

Admissions Procedures for ESE and International Students

All applicants whose native language is not English and who have not earned a degree from an appropriately accredited institution where English is the principle language of instruction must receive a TOEFL score of 550 or 213 (new scale), with at least 52 (old scale) or 18 (new scale) in each section of the exam in addition to the standard admission requirements. For more information, please refer to http://www.toefl.org.

International students with non-U.S. educational credentials must first obtain a foreign credentials evaluation from the Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc. (ECE), Post Office Box 92970, Milwaukee, WI 53202-0970, USA; telephone 414-289-3400, fax 414-289-3411, or another independent U.S. evaluation service approved by the University. Request forms and cost information are available at the ECE website, www.ece.org.

Admission of Non-degree Seeking Students

Non-degree status allows students who have no immediate intention to pursue a degree to enroll in courses without seeking degree program admission. Non-degree admission is not automatically granted and does not guarantee enrollment in any specific course.

Application Procedure:

Non-degree seeking applicants must submit to the Office of Admissions:

1. Completed application for admission


2. A one time application fee of $50


3. Completed Registration Form


4. Unofficial transcripts from previous/current college or university

Enrollment for non-degree seeking students is based on the students' eligibility and the availability of space in the desired course(s). Non-degree seeking students may enroll for no more than a total of nine (9) credit hours. Completing courses as a non-degree seeking student does not automatically qualify an applicant for admission into a degree program. Non-degree seeking students who wish to enroll in a degree program must reapply (application fee is required) and adhere to all admissions requirements. Non-degree seeking students are not eligible for financial aid or scholarships.
