Application Materials
Q: I went to more than one institution, do I need to submit transcripts from each one?
If all your courses and the corresponding grades for each course appear on one transcript you can submit one document. If your courses are listed but the grades are not, you will need to submit a transcript from each institution. This includes transcripts from study abroad experiences.
Q: Do I need to submit an official evaluation of my international transcript?
We ask that international applicants obtain credential evaluations, if possible, but if you currently have an official English translated version of your transcripts that includes a grading scale, that would also be acceptable for our application.
Q: How long should my application essays be?
Your Statement of Qualifications & Objectives and Equity & Inclusion Statement should each be no more than two pages, double-spaced.
Admissions Decisions
Q: When will I receive my admissions decision?
Admissions decisions for Boston campus-based programs are released approximately eight weeks after an application is complete and after the recommended deadline has passed. Only complete applications will be reviewed.
