This section requests information common to all degree programs and includes the following sub-sections:

Personal Information

Applicants are asked to submit biographical information, contact information, citizenship information and personal identification information. If you possess an Arizona State University ID number from past enrollment and/or a previous application, please have this information available.

Institution Information

Applicants will be asked to submit the beginning/ending dates and location(s) of your academic degree(s).

Academic Information

To be eligible for admission to graduate studies, you should have the following:

• U.S. bachelor's degree or the equivalent from a regionally accredited institution. A bachelor's degree in the U.S. is a four-year degree that follows twelve years of primary and secondary school work. International applicants should review information regarding international degrees.
• Equivalent to a "B" grade point average in the last 60 semester hours or 90 quarter hours of undergraduate course work is preferred.

The Admissions Committee will review transcripts and GPAs and incorporate information such as major and institution attended as part of the evaluation process. Post-baccalaureate course work at the community college, undergraduate or graduate level may be used to enhance a lower undergraduate GPA. If you are concerned about your past academic performance, you may use the third essay question in the online application to provide the Admissions Committee with additional information about your GPA. Personal, academic or financial constraints which may have impacted your academic performance should be addressed.

Students will be required to submit transcripts from all institutions attended. International applicants should review additional details concerning the submission of international transcripts.
