Our department has never established minimum cut-off values on any indices.

In the final analysis, the minimum standards are those of the reviewing faculty. The following serve as general guidelines.
A graduate program, with a major in psychology, in which a thesis was required, leading to a master's degree from a recognized graduate school (or 30 semester hours) of approved graduate study.
A grade-point average of 3.5 or better in all previous graduate courses.
Graduate course work in psychology equivalent to those courses required of a candidate for a master's degree in psychology at Michigan State University.

A reasonably diversified undergraduate background in the liberal arts and sciences including such subjects as english, history, philosophy, foreign language, physical and biological sciences, and mathematics.
Satisfactory verbal ability and quantitative ability scores on the Aptitude Test of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
If the applicant's master's degree did not include a research thesis, admission may be offered on a provisional basis. Subsequent admission to regular status will require presentation to the faculty of an acceptable equivalent research project completed here or elsewhere.
If the applicant has not completed the master's degree because of unexpected circumstances by the admission date at Michigan State University, the student is given one academic year to complete the final requirements.
