My undergraduate GPA is lower than the departmental requirements. Can I still apply to the Masters program?
If your undergraduate GPA is lower than the departmental requirements, it would be advised that you apply as a non-degree student for three classes or nine credits. (Up to nine credits will transfer toward a graduate degree.) If the GPA for these courses meets departmental requirements (minimum “B” average) you may then apply for admission as a regular graduate student.
