Description of other application requirements

Applicants must submit two letters of recommendation from persons familiar with their scholarship and research potential, transcripts, a current résumé, and answers to two essay questions found within the University's online application. All applications for admission are reviewed once a year. All new students begin in fall semester unless permission to start earlier is granted by the track coordinator. The annual deadline is February 1 for the two-year MA program. The annual deadline is February 1 for one-year MA program options (not available for the HRD or MCTL tracks).

Letters of recommendation, résumé, essays, and other department application materials are submitted via the University online application system. Unofficial transcripts and TOEFL/IELTS score may also be submitted via the online application for admission review purposes only. Admitted students must submit transcripts (sent directly from institution[s]), and TOEFL/IELTS scores (as applicable) to the University as a condition of any admission offer.

Applicants must have completed appropriate undergraduate and graduate study. In some cases, where previous coursework or degrees are marginally related, otherwise qualified applicants will be asked to complete additional background courses after admission. Applications are encouraged from individuals who may have completed undergraduate and/or master's programs in social science, liberal arts, public affairs, and business fields. The department offers study opportunities for professionals who are employed full time as well as for those who wish to pursue graduate studies full time.
