Graduate Student Admissions Process

University admissions personnel evaluate all graduate applicants on an individual basis and recommend as students those individuals who provide evidence of satisfactory potential for graduate study. To assist the admissions personnel in making informed decisions regarding the recommendation for acceptance to the University, a qualitative admissions interview is required to assess a prospective student's interest, desireand motivation to be successful in an advanced degree program of study.

A matriculation process is conducted in Academic Affairs to determine final acceptance to AIU.

To be considered for admissions to the graduate programs of AIU, applicants must fulfill the admissions process requirements listed below:

  1. Submit a complete application for graduate admission.
  2. Accompany the application with a $50 (£35 London) application fee.
  3. Submit an official undergraduate transcript verifying an earned baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution with a minimum cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale).
  4. Participate in a qualitative admissions interview arranged by a University admissions advisor.
  5. Non-native speakers of English are required to provide proof of English proficiency (e.g. TOEFL or other English proficiency assessment) prior to admission or arrival.

If you need help or have questions at any point in the admissions process, an AIU Admissions Advisor will be happy to assist you. We look forward to you joining our graduate student population.
