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).
The demand for the MS in Health Care Management has increased in the past years and the omission of GRE scores from the admissions process places heavy emphasis on the candidates having a minimum GPA of 3.0. A higher GPA would strengthen the candidate\xc2\x92s application but for candidates with lower GPA\xc2\x92s the minimum 3.0 threshold is closely adhered to.
