Program Requirements & Benefits
- Applicants must be in junior standing to apply and must achieve senior standing before beginning graduate-level coursework.
- Students in any major from either the College of Liberal Arts (CLA) or Professional Advancement are eligible to apply to any participating graduate program—specific pre-requisite courses are not required.
- As a current Rollins student, you do not need to submit transcripts—your academic transcripts are retrieved on your behalf. There’s no application fee required, and you do not need to submit any test scores.
- You can begin graduate courses in your senior year. That means you can use your current merit-based scholarships and financial aid toward graduate courses completed during your senior year.
