Beginning Fall 2009, a $35 fee will be applied to all students submitting a professional admissions application.
The Eller College admits students twice a year. The professional admission process for Spring 2010 admission has completed.
Criteria Considered
- Performance in foundation courses is competitive. (The calculation of the foundation course GPA does include grades from transferred coursework, although these grades do not affect the UA cumulative GPA.)
- Leadership, work experience, community service, and involvement in co-curricular activities is important
- Students must meet the application deadline — late applications will not be accepted
The admission process is competitive and selective. The Eller College Professional Program seeks students with intellectual and interpersonal abilities that will contribute to the Eller College's academic and co-curricular programs, as well as those students who demonstrate strong leadership potential and have a high potential for success in the professional management field. To achieve these goals, students entering the Professional Program must possess a high level of language proficiency (speaking, writing, listening, and reading) and a high level of interpersonal competency for success and satisfaction in not only the academic environment but also in today’s global business environments (see eligibility requirements for more information).
One of our goals is a diverse student body. Among equally qualified applicants, preference will be given to U.S. citizens and others who are otherwise qualified to hold permanent employment in the U.S.
Students must begin the professional program in the semester for which they apply. Professional Admission status cannot be deferred to a future semester.
