Application Requirements: University transcript.
Curriculum Vitae:
Include a current résumé. Although work experience is not required for admission to the full-time program, it can help an applicant be more competitive in the admissions process.
Personal Statement:
Your statement of intent should indicate your preparation to participate in the MPA program. It should address any work experience you have and the extent to which an MPA degree will be consistent with your career aspirations. This document should typically be no more than two pages. If there are any mitigating circumstances that should be brought to the attention of the admission committee, they should be addressed in this letter.
Recommendation Letter:
The three letters of recommendation should be written by people you are professionally acquainted with who can address your ability to succeed in graduate school. The letters are submitted through the online application process. Simply enter the desired recommender’s name and email address. The recommender will receive a request and can submit the letters directly into the application system. Letters must be current. This means that you may not submit the same letter upon reapplication.
