Admission Requirement / Eligibility Criteria
Students having a GPA of 2.75 or higher for the last 60 hours of undergraduate course work are admitted unconditionally and are not required to take the GRE.
Students with a GPA below 2.75 for the last 60 hours of undergraduate course work may qualify for conditional admission, but must submit GRE scores to the Graduate College. A score of 297 or higher is considered acceptable for attaining conditional admission to the Engineering Management graduate program. However, a final admission decision will not be made until GRE scores are on file with the Graduate College. Applications with lower GPAs will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Lower GPAs may require higher GRE scores. Please note that conditional admission is NOT available for international students and they have to meet the minimum GPA requirement.
