Standard Admission Requirements

There are two sets of requirements: University admission requirements and the program specific requirements of each UNF graduate program.

University Admission Requirements

  1. A baccalaureate degree from an accepted institutional accreditor, or its equivalent from a foreign institution, with a GPA of 3.0 or higher in all work attempted in the last 60 credit hours of undergraduate study. 
  2. Transcripts, and foreign evaluations if applicable, from all post-secondary institutions attended. Admitted students will be prompted to provide official copies. 

UNF Program Specific Admission Requirements

Students may also be required to meet specific or more stringent requirements of the program to which they are seeking admission. Such requirements may include, but are not limited to:

  • Standardized test scores
  • Supplemental documents (i.e. letters of recommendation, resume, personal statement)
  • Licensing

Please visit the the Graduate School website for a list of offered programs and their specific requirements. Students should be aware that admission into any graduate program is granted on a competitive basis. Students meeting minimum requirements may be denied admission based on such factors as program capacity or academic discretion. Likewise, students may be considered for admission as an exception if stated admissions criteria are not met.

Decision Notification

Admission decisions are provided to all applicants who have submitted a completed application with all required additional material regardless of the nature of the admission decision. Admission decisions are sent via e-mail after the decision is posted. Please note that the time frame in which a decision is made is dependent on the reviewing process of the program director or the departmental committee (if applicable).

You can view your decision e-mail by logging into your application status portal. Please note that admission decisions cannot be appealed.
