Extended Deadlines
Several programs will extend consideration for admission beyond the general deadline.
This listing is only available at the point at which the General deadline has been reached.
The General deadline has been reached for Fall 2008 consideration.
Applicants unable to file by their respective deadline may still have an opportunity to pursue graduate
study in the School of Arts & Sciences and the Schools of the Health Professions
by applying for non-matriculated admission status.
An applicant for graduate
admission is expected to hold a bachelor's degree from a regionally
accredited U.S. institution, comparable in standard and content to a
bachelor’s degree from Hunter College. Degrees granted on the basis of work
completed at institutions which are not fully accredited, or on the basis of
non-academic prior learning, test scores, and other than organized
supervised course work in academic subjects will not be considered
comparable.
In addition, each applicant is expected, at minimum, to have a “B” average for courses in the
area of specialization, an overall “B minus” average for the baccalaureate,
and a “B” average for any courses taken on the graduate level.
International applicants are expected to demonstrate above average
scholarship. Furthermore, applicants to the School of Arts and Sciences
usually must have a minimum of 18 credits of preparation in the area of
specialization. Additional program requirements can be found in the program
sections of this application
