Overview
The History MA program from Mississippi State University expects an applicant to have either an overall GPA of 3.00 or a GPA of 3.00 in the last two years of undergraduate study. The prerequisite for admission to a graduate program in history is a minimum of 18 hours of undergraduate history courses; for a graduate minor in history, 12 hours of undergraduate history courses are required.
Key facts:
Although one C grade may be included in a graduate program, the History Department views C grades as evidence of unsatisfactory work. A student who earns a second C grade will be dismissed from the program. Students earning one grade of D or F will also be dismissed from the program. A candidate for degree must have achieved a B average by the end of the coursework.
