There are no prerequisite requirements in the graduate program in Education.

Admissions requirements for all education degrees and certificates:

  • Submitted Messiah University application

  • Official transcript(s) indicating completion (or anticipated completion) of a bachelor's or master's degree. To be considered "official", transcript(s) must be requested and sent directly from institution(s) attended to gradprograms@messiah.edu.

  • Cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher; cumulative GPAs < 3.0 will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis

  • Statement of Purpose: a 300-500 word statement describing how you have prepared for graduate work, your reasons for applying for this particular graduate program, and how this program will help you meet your professional and educational goals. 

  • Contact information for one reference: please select a reference who can address your professional experience and/or academic performance (excluding relatives)

  • Resume or CV (curriculum vitae)

The degrees and certificates in the graduate program in education are primarily or completely online. Because of this, the U.S. government does not allow Messiah University to offer an F-1 student visa for entry to the United States in order to study in this program.

However, international students may complete these degrees remotely from outside of the United States. If you are applying as a remote student, in addition to the admissions requirements above, international students interested in graduate programs in education must submit:

  • a course-by-course evaluation of all international transcripts
  • English proficiency exam: only TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo are accepted

Further information about these requirements is available on the graduate international student page.
