Policies and Procedures for Administering Graduate Student Programs
Graduate Admissions
Graduate admission is granted to a specific department. Applicants are expected to hold baccalaureate degrees from accredited colleges or universities prior to registration as graduate students. Three-year Bologna bachelor’s degree recipients are eligible for admission. Applicants with three-year baccalaureate degrees from countries that are not part of the Bologna Process may also be considered for admission, on a case-by-case basis, using a holistic review. Departments may recommend applicants from these countries with three-year baccalaureate degrees with or without conditions, depending upon the outcome of the holistic review of the candidate. Conditions for admission should be clearly communicated to students at the time of their admission.
Applicants for a master’s or doctoral degree program should have achieved a 3.0 g.p.a (or equivalent) or higher from the institution where a baccalaureate degree or higher was awarded to be admitted without conditions of continued enrollment. Some graduate programs have additional requirements for admission and can have different deadlines. For more information, and to see which graduate programs may be actively recruiting, please consult Graduate Program Requirements for specific departments/programs.

Graduate Education for Advancement (GEA)
The Graduate Education for Advancement (GEA) Committee meets once a month during the fall and spring semesters of the academic year to discuss graduate faculty, education, and policy issues. There is a representative from each of the colleges/schools (usually the Associate/ Assistant Dean for Graduate Programs) and the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Scholars (OGSPS). In addition, OGSPS representatives attend each month to be able to provide feedback on topics such as marketing, recruitment, and fellowships. Primarily, the group acts as an advisory board to the Vice Provost of OGSPS on what direction to take on various issues facing graduate education for Purdue University as a whole.
