What is the GRE (Graduate Record Exam)? Do I have to take the GRE for entrance into a psychology graduate program?
Regarding the necessity of taking the GRE for entrance into graduate school, the answer is a qualified “yes.” Most masters and doctoral programs in psychology include the GRE as one of the application requirements. However, some programs, including the MSCP at Madonna University, only require the GRE if students have a relatively low undergraduate GPA (e.g., below 3.25, on a 4-point scale).
