Our Decision Process

申请人将根据其本科和研究生成绩以及入学材料的实力被录取. An applicant may be unconditionally admitted, provisionally admitted, conditionally admitted or receive a language admission.

The St. Cloud State University School of Graduate Studies complies with all National Association of Graduate Admissions Professionals (NAGAP) ethics policies and standards. 

Types of Admission

Unconditional Admission

这种状态授予完全满足研究生院和研究生课程入学要求的申请人.

Congratulations!

Provisional Admission

This status is granted, at a program's request, 对于申请文件中缺少一项或需要提交正式文件的学术实力强的申请人. A provisional admission status allows the student to start classes, 但临时录取的学生必须在第一学期内提交缺失的材料. If unofficial documents were submitted with the application, it is imperative that official documents are submitted during the first term of enrollment.

  • A student will not be allowed to continue as a provisionally admitted student beyond one term.
  • 官方文件必须在注册的第一个学期提交,以便继续注册.

Conditional Admission for Domestic Applicants

有条件录取授予未达到最低GPA或GRE成绩要求的国内申请人, or who have deficiencies in their undergraduate preparation. The offer of a conditional admission is recommended at the program level. 被有条件录取的国内申请人将完成一项教育计划,该计划规定至少要完成6到9个学分,平均成绩为3分.25 or higher in the first term of enrollment. Upon completion of this requirement, 学生的学习成绩将被审查,以考虑是否给予无条件录取. 

Denial of Admission

拒绝决定表明申请人已被拒绝进入学位课程,并且可能无法获得St. Cloud State University even if he or she has successfully completed advanced courses. Reapplication does not guarantee admission to the School of Graduate Studies. 

拒绝入学的决定可能是由于某些课程中可供新生入学的可用空间有限. 学业成绩差或在研究生工作中取得成功的可能性有限的申请人可能会被拒绝进入学位课程并被允许参加研究生课程. 如果涉及的课程和研究生院院长同意申请人不符合获得该学科研究生学位的学生通常要求的专业标准,申请人也可能被拒绝.

Readmission

研究生休学后计划休假或返回本校的学生可能需要申请 readmission. 

Deferral of Admission

  • If you are admitted and need to defer your admission, 如果得到研究生项目主任和研究生院的批准,你可以推迟入学最多一个日历年.
  • Complete the Deferred Admission Request Form and submit to Graduate Admissions before your original intended term of enrollment begins. 研究生招生将与你的研究生项目主任和国际研究中心协调,并通知你延期录取的资格.
  • 这个过程允许被录取的学生从最初的期望学期开始注册三个学期(包括夏季学期),而无需重新申请.
  • Example: An applicant applies and is admitted to an upcoming fall semester. If approved by the program, the admitted student may defer admission to the following fall semester (one year later). If the applicant sought to defer to the spring semester outside of that one year, a new application and application fee would be required for reconsideration.
  • 从最初期望的学期延长超过三个学期(包括夏季学期)将需要重新申请并提交申请费.
  • Doctoral students may defer enrollment for up to two years to join the appropriate cohort.
