The University of Cincinnati welcomes graduate applications from students who:
- hold a baccalaureate degree from a college or university regarded as standard by
a regional or general accrediting agency and
- have at least a B average in relevant undergraduate course work or otherwise give
evidence of promise as judged satisfactory by the admitting program.
Decisions concerning admission to graduate programs rest with the graduate programs,
and the criteria used for determining admission are established by the programs.
In highly exceptional cases, program directors may petition the Senior Assistant
Dean of the Graduate School to waive the baccalaureate requirement. Program admission
decisions are final unless it can be demonstrated that the program violated a policy
established by the university or the Graduate School or that the program failed
to consistently apply the criteria established by the program or college. Programs
have the authority to set their application deadlines, to require certain pre-admission
examinations, to require satisfactory completion of certain course work prior to
admission, and to establish other pre-admission requirements. The process for making
graduate program admission decisions varies slightly from program to program; however,
all programs have established written criteria for judging the admissibility of
applicants. These criteria are published in each program’s graduate handbook.
