Applicants who possess a baccalaureate degree not in criminal justice may also be
considered for admission to the MSCJ program. However, they must first complete
undergraduate courses CJAD 101: Introduction to Criminal
Justice
and CJAD 415: Criminal
Procedures,
earning a "B" or higher in both. Subsequent to successful
completion of these courses their file may be reviewed for admission to the MSCJ
program.
Applicants not meeting the minimum 3.0 overall undergraduate GPA requirement, but who possess a baccalaureate degree in criminal justice or a related field, may take up to 9 graduate hours (observing necessary prerequisites) during which time they may reapply for formal admittance to the MSCJ program.
