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).
A minimum 3.0/4.0 GPA and excellent GRE scores (top tiers in all categories) are our general qualification criterion for admission. However, we take all aspects of an application into consideration. This means that the strength of letters of recommendation and statement of purpose, as well as the GRE scores and GPA, will be part of the overall consideration.
