Graduate Admissions FAQs
We can answer your frequently asked questions about our Graduate Programs and get you started on your path to further your education.
A minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0 is required for admission to all Bushnell graduate programs.
The selection committee evaluates applicants’ overall capabilities for success in the program. A lower than required GPA or test score will not automatically disqualify a candidate for admission consideration, but higher GPAs and test scores make you more competitive in the overall selection process.
Yes, financial aid is available for all of the graduate programs at Bushnell University. You must complete the FAFSA at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ to be considered for federal aid. We strongly encourage students to file the FAFSA at least one month prior to the start date of the program and will need to be completed once per academic year.
Outside scholarships are also available for graduate students.
