Graduate and Post-Master’s Certificate-Seeking Applicants

The following are required for graduate and post-master’s certificate-seeking applicants in order to be considered:

• a completed graduate admission application with the nonrefundable $40 application fee
• transcripts reflecting postsecondary work and showing successful completion or expected completion of at least a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university (applicants to a post-master’s certificate program must also present evidence of a master’s degree)
• an interview with the appropriate program representative, if required by the program

Students admitted to certificate programs are limited to enrollment in those courses and prerequisites that fulfill certificate requirements. Marymount graduate certificate coursework that is applicable to a given master’s degree may be applied to that degree; however, students must apply for degree status prior to or upon completion of the certificate. No more than 18 credits of courses earned in certificate programs may be applied to graduate degree requirements. Completion of a certificate offering does not guarantee admission to a degree program.

International students must follow the admission procedures for international applicants. See International Student Applicants.
