ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS
 
No standardized tests, such as the GRE, are needed for admission into the master’s degree program. However, successful completion of the prerequisite course, Politics, Public Policy, and Leadership, is required.  It is strongly recommended that the prerequisite be your first course toward your Master of Arts in Political Science degree with concentration on politics and public policy, but you are not prohibited from taking any Center for NEW DIRECTIONS course prior to formal admission to the program.

Admission can be granted prior to any class registration if the student would like to be eligible to apply for financial aid.  To request early admission for the fall 2005 semester, a complete application for graduate admission must be filed with the NEW DIRECTIONS office no later than July 1.

The admissions process and registration for new students begins with the Center for NEW DIRECTIONS. If you are interested in beginning any program, please call the Center for NEW DIRECTIONS at 303-556-5950, or email the Director. We welcome the opportunity to discuss your personal academic background, and how one of the Center’s programs might help you attain your own academic and professional goals!
