Note that if you do not have a BS in Computer Science, you may be required to complete undergraduate prerequisites before you are eligible to take graduate courses or hold a Graduate Teaching Assistantship. If your undergraduate degree is in a field not related to Computer Science, you may want to consider a 2nd BS instead of a MS.
Applying
When you are ready, . Once the application is complete, the graduate committee will evaluate the application. The committee looks at the whole application before making a decision.
The main factors that the committee considers for admitting students into our MS program are undergraduate background, GPA, and ranking of the graduating school.
If you are an international student, you are strongly encouraged to submit your required financial documents at the time of application. This will help to speed up the issuance of an I-20 if you are accepted into the program. Your financial documents will not be used for Graduate Assistantship decisions — these are merit-based only.
