The policy of the Doctoral program is to consider students
who show considerable promise of succeeding in the program.
The Admissions Committee evaluates each applicant's scholastic
record, paying attention to previous academic work, results
from the GRE, career goals, professional experience and
evidence of academic potential.
Consideration for admission into the Ph.D. program is based
on the applicant's completion of a bachelor's degree from
an accredited college or university, with a cumulative overall
GPA of at least 3.00 (B) on a scale of 4.00. Applicants
with a Master's degree should have a 3.50 GPA in their graduate
work. Some background in criminal justice and in social
or behavioral sciences is preferred, but not absolutely
required.
The Ph.D. Program is open to full-time students.
A limited number of part-time students will be accepted on an ad hoc basis. We encourage applications from those currently employed
in criminal justice and related fields.
