Master of Arts in Foreign Languages, Culture, and Literatures (FLCL)
Admission to the Program
The information we request in the application process helps us evaluate your potential for graduate study, as well as the match of your interests with our strengths. These materials include your writing sample, personal statement on the Graduate School application, GRE scores, letters of recommendation, transcripts, and any additional information you provide, such as study abroad, work experience, or special skills. No one component, such as a GRE score, ensures admission nor precludes it; we make a judgment based on the entire application.
Minimum Criteria for Admission
- 3.0 GPA in undergraduate or prior graduate work.
- If the applicant's native language is not English, a TOEFL score of 600 (paper) or 250 (computer-based) or 100 (IBT) is required. For more information on the TOEFL exam, see www.ets.org.
- At least 18 hours of course credit in French or Spanish at the advanced level.
- Applicants whose undergraduate degrees were earned in other fields, or who otherwise do not meet the above requirements, but who provide evidence of capacity to pursue graduate study, may be offered admission into the program with conditional status. Applicants in this category may be asked to appear for a personal interview and to take an appropriate exam. They may also be asked to make up undergraduate deficiencies before being advanced to degree status.
