Can the GRE or MAT exams ever be waived?
The GRE cannot be waived for admission to either the doctoral or master’s program. However, the GRE/MAT test score admissions requirement for the master’s program is currently being waived for UMass Lowell alumni who have graduated within the past five years with an overall GPA of 3.0 or higher. The GRE or MAT may be waived for students who already possess a master’s degree from an accredited U.S. University and who are applying to one of the six certificate programs.
