The Graduate School minimum undergraduate grade point average is 2.75 out of 4.0. Some graduate programs may have higher GPA requirements for admission consideration.
If you were educated outside of the United States, an equivalent U.S. grade point average will be calculated as part of the application review process. We do not require applicants to submit credential evaluations like WES or ECE.
Individual departments or programs may require the GRE, GMAT, or MAT. Most programs do not have minimum score requirements. Instead, test scores are viewed as one factor in the context of a student's overall application file. Because these tests are required by departments rather than by the Graduate School, contact your program of interest for more information about GRE, GMAT, or MAT test scores. If you take the GRE test and want to send us your official test scores, our ETS Institution Code is 1463.
Supplementary materials are additional application items that an academic program may require. Most supplementary materials are needed to be uploaded with your online application. The following are the most common supplemental materials:
On the application, there is a question regarding assistantship to indicate interest. Some departments require additional information and documentation for applicants to be considered for an assistantship. Check with your program of interest to determine what documents you must submit. You can also visit our Funding and Awards webpage for more funding opportunities.
Contact the Graduate School at ApplyGrad@MiamiOH.edu, and we will help fix the incorrect information.

Sometimes. Log into your Application Status page and review your Application Checklist section. If the status is "awaiting" and the recommender has not started yet, you will see an option to "Edit this recommender" or "Add recommender." Once a recommender has started their letter, the opportunity to edit/change is no longer available.
One reason is that your permanent address entered on the application does not match the mailing address for the credit card. If you have any difficulty, confirm the addresses match.
A check payment takes 3-5 business days to process and update.
