MPP Admissions Requirements
Your application will be considered only if you have:

Admission to the MPP program is selective. Your qualifications will be evaluated after you have submitted all of the following material:
- Online application (click on Grad - Arts & Sciences)
- $60 nonrefundable application fee (paid online with credit card or check or money order made payable to the University of Denver) (Prior to Oct. 1, 2007, the application fee is $50.)
- Official GRE test scores sent DU's Institutional Code R4842 (the LSAT may be submitted instead of the GRE if you are concurrently applying to DU Law School) (GRE Web Site)
-
Two unopened, official transcripts from every college or university you have attended
-
Three letters of recommendation (sealed and signed across the flap; no specific recommendation
form is required, only the letter). Letters of recommendation should be written by professors
if you are a recent college graduate. If you have been out of school for awhile, you may have
the letters written by supervisors or others who can speak to your academic potential.
- A 2-3 page personal statement of professional objectives
