All applicants to the International Business Graduate Certificate program must fulfill the program's Admissions requirements.
Admissions Requirements
Earned Baccalaureate Degree
All applicants to the International Business Graduate Certificate program must have an earned baccalaureate degree from an accredited 4-year college or university in the United States or comparable non-U.S. degree/diploma from a recognized foreign institution of higher education at the time of matriculation. A copy of official transcripts from all undergraduate colleges/universities attended must be submitted as part of the application process. Applicants may hold a degree in any field, although it is expected that most applicants will hold degrees in business. To make up for gaps in their undergraduate preparation, students may be admitted with conditions to complete one or more business foundations courses. Business foundations courses will not count toward the certificate program requirements. Such conditions will be stated in the letter of admission.
