Application deadlines: May 1-Summer Term; July 31-Fall Term; November 30-Spring Term

A graduate student may apply to Lynchburg College using the paper application or the on-line application. Before the admissions committee can consider an application for admission to a degree program, a candidate’s file must be complete in all details, including the following:

  1. A degree application form, including the personal essay;
  2. An official transcript documenting receipt of a bachelor’s degree from an institution accredited by a regional accrediting association (and any other undergraduate transcripts reflecting relevant work which is not reflected on the bachelor’s degree transcript) (note: for current college seniors, subsequent documentation of degree completion must come prior to enrollment);
  3. Any relevant graduate studies transcript(s) (if applicable);
  4. Demonstrated academic aptitude as indicated by a satisfactory undergraduate record. (In general, this infers an average of B or better, for at least the last two years of undergraduate work.)
  5. Three letters of recommendation;
  6. Results of GRE (for M.A. in English and history, M.Ed., and M.S.N.) or GMAT (for M.B.A.) examinations;
  7. A professional portfolio for M.A. in music candidates;
  8. An interview with faculty for the M. Ed. in counseling;
  9. A $30 non-refundable application fee that is waived for online applications.
  10. A student may earn a second graduate degree by satisfactorily completing a minimum of 24 semester hours of graduate credit (minimum of 36 hours for counseling programs) at the College. Individuals seeking such a degree are subject to the graduate admissions requirements as listed above and may obtain information about the GRE and GMAT waiver policy from the Office of Graduate Studies to determine their eligibility.

Degree admissions decisions are based on the careful consideration of all required admissions components. The focus of the admission committee’s review is on an evaluation of an individual’s likelihood of success in one of our graduate programs.
