Other requirements

General requirements

A bachelor's degree from an accredited institution with a grade point average of "B" or better. Applicants who do not meet the minimum GPA requirements may be offered admission. Admission in such cases will depend heavily on other indices of the student's ability to handle graduate-level work. These might include strong performance on standardized tests, GPA in the major, and/or other experiences that are clearly indicative of strong academic ability.

Preference will be given to students with a background in Computer and Information Science and Computer Engineering.
