Admissions Decisions

Decisions to admit students to The Murphy Graduate School are made by the academic program faculty and graduate school. Admissions decisions will be reported in writing to each applicant by the dean of The Murphy Graduate School. Students have one year in which to enroll after which time their files will be discarded if matriculation does not occur.

After completion of 12 semester hours and successful completion of all required tests, students apply for candidacy (except Alternative A). Decisions to admit students to candidacy are made at the academic program level and The Murphy Graduate School.
