Admission Requirements
Academic Requirements
You need the following GPA score:
Applicants for graduate programs must have the equivalent of a bachelor\xe2\x80\x99s degree with a minimum GPA equivalent to 3 on a US 4.0 grading scale. Admitted applicants typically have an undergraduate GPA of or better on a 4.0 scale. No exam grade should be lower than 4.5 (European grade scale) or D (American grade scale).
Your GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated using the grades that you received in each course, and is determined by the points assigned to each grade (e.g. for the US grading scale from A-F).
Admission Requirements
- Each applicant for admission to the M.S. in Engineering degree program must have an undergraduate engineering degree from an ABET-accredited college or university and meet one of the following (A, B, or C) admission requirement options:
- Pass the PE exam, or
- Have an undergraduate cumulative GPA of 3.00 or greater, or
- Have an undergraduate cumulative GPA of 2.50 up to 2.99, and have at least two of the following: (1) Pass the FE,(2) verbal GRE score at least 151, (3) quantitative GRE score at least 150, and (4) analytical writing GRE score atleast 4.0.
- Alternatively, an applicant who has an undergraduate engineering degree from an ABET-accredited college or university and has an undergraduate GPA less than 3.00 may be considered for Provisional Admission without taking the GRE. To be removed from Provisional Admission, the student must have a minimum cumulative graduate GPA of at least 3.30 at the end of his or her first 9 credit hours of CITE M.S.E. degree courses\xc2\x97if this provisional requirement is not met, the student will be dropped from the program.
- Applicants who do not meet the above criteria but who do have an undergraduate engineering degree are welcome to apply as non-degree seeking students and take CITE M.S.E. degree classes. If a non-degree seeking student has at least a minimum cumulative graduate GPA of 3.30 in his or her first 9 credit hours of CITE M.S.E. courses, and has an undergraduate engineering degree, that student may re-apply to the university to be considered for admission to the M.S.E. degree program.
- Foreign students who have an undergraduate engineering degree, but not from an ABET-accredited college or university, and who have an undergraduate GPA equivalent to at least a 2.75, can be considered for admission only on a case-by-case basis, and the program admission recommendation will be up to the judgment and decision of the program coordinator for the M.S.E. degree program, while taking into consideration the other requirements stated above as well as individual high achievement of the applicant.
- Also, all international students must have an iBT TOEFL score of at least 85, or a Paper-Based TOEFL score of at least 527, prior to registering for the first semester of courses.
- All students, foreign or domestic, who are admitted without an engineering degree from an ABET-accredited engineering degree program must realize that they will likely not qualify to take the FE exam or the PE exam, even if they earn the M.S.E. degree.
