5020 Admissions

A person seeking to pursue any of the college’s programs of graduate study must be admitted to Georgia State University through the Georgia State University Graduate School. The Byrdine F. Lewis College of Nursing and Health Professions makes all admissions decisions for its programs. The requirements for admission stated in the following sections are established by the College of Nursing and Health Professions and the department of the program. Acceptance into one of the programs in the College of Nursing and Health Professions does not imply acceptance into another College/School in the University.

Georgia State University welcomes applications from all qualified individuals regardless of race, color, sex, religion, creed, age, sexual orientation, gender, disability, veteran status or national origin. Admission is based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, an applicant’s academic record, test scores, experience, circumstances, good conduct and character. Admission is a competitive, selective process and meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee acceptance.

Absent extenuating circumstances, good disciplinary standing at previously attended colleges and universities is a condition of admission for all applicants. For purposes of admission, good disciplinary standing means that the applicant has no pending disciplinary charges, outstanding disciplinary sanctions or disciplinary issues that would prevent the applicant from re-enrolling at previously attended post-secondary institutions.

Applicants with a criminal and/or disciplinary history who are determined to be otherwise admissible for a respective term based on their academic record and other credentials are required to complete an admissions background review process before an admission decision is made by the university. Instructions for completing that review process are communicated to the applicant after the university has determined that the applicant is otherwise admissible for that term.

Omissions or misrepresentations on an application for admission are grounds for automatically invalidating consideration by, acceptance to and continuation at Georgia State. Applicants have a duty to update their application with Georgia State when information changes after application submission.

Graduate Admissions Appeals

The Chair of the academic department of the graduate program and the dean of the relevant college are the President’s designees for purposes of hearing Graduate Admissions Appeals.

Applicants for graduate program admissions who are denied admission due to academic ineligibility may appeal the denial to the department chair within twenty (20) calendar days of the date of the denial letter. The college dean serves as the final level of appeal.

Applicants for graduate admission who are denied for reasons related to disciplinary/criminal history or falsification of application may appeal the denial to the Dean of the Georgia State University Graduate School within twenty (20) calendar days of the date of the denial letter. The decision of the Dean of the Georgia State University Graduate School is final.

Notice to applicant of background review requirements

The University requires applicants who have a criminal or disciplinary history to complete a background review. Please contact the Background Review Records Coordinator at 404-413-1515 for information regarding completion of the review process as soon as possible to ensure timely processing of yourapplication.* The Background Review Records Coordinator will let you know what supplemental documentation you will need to provide to complete the process. You may be required to provide documentation such as:

1. a personal statement explaining the circumstances surrounding criminal or school disciplinary violations, and the current status of any charges and sanctions;
2. copies of criminal or school disciplinary records; and
3. a background check (if you have a criminal history);

Please note that a final admission decision cannot be made until you complete all requirements of the admissions background review process.

*Applications may be withdrawn from review if the background review process is not initiated within two weeks.

Regarding non-resident Georgia (out-of-state) students that are taking courses via distance education, please review the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA) link on the Georgia State University’s website atoie.gsu.edu/assessment-and-review-academic-and-adminstrative/accreditation/state-authorization/ to determine if the courses you are planning to enroll in are accepted by your home state and/or home institution.

Student interested in F1 or J1 visa sponsorship should apply for the Traditional track. Provisional Status Applicants who do not meet one or more of the admissions standards for full graduate status and who, in the opinion of the faculty, have the potential to be successful in graduate study, may be admitted to provisional status. Students admitted to this status must satisfy the requirements stated on their admission letter to continue in full graduate status. Students are admitted to this status at the option of the department and when adequate facilities are available.

Respiratory Therapy Non-degree Status

Non-degree Status is provided to accommodate selected students who do not plan to seek the master’s degree. Additionally, this status may be used to accommodate selected students who have the potential for graduate study but, at the time of application, are not able to fulfill all the requirements for admission to full graduate status. A student is admitted to this status at the option of the department concerned. Admission to this status does not warrant or secure admission to the degree program. Students in non-degree status are limited to 12 semester hours of graduate course work.

Applications are accepted for the fall and spring semesters only. The application deadline for fall is May 15 and September 15 for spring and January 15 for summer. Application information and materials are available on the College’s website at https://lewis.gsu.edu/admissions/graduate/#nondegree.

5020.10 Transient Student Admission

A student enrolled in a graduate degree program at another accredited institution may seek admission as a transient student in the college. Admission requirements include an application, application fee, certificate of immunization, and a letter of good standing from the institution the applicant is presently attending. The letter must include the courses approved by the home institution. The application must be printed/downloaded from the website at lewis.gsu.edu/admissions/graduate/#transient.

Admission to transient status is normally for one semester only. A transient student who wishes to enroll for a subsequent semester at Georgia State must file an Application for Re-entry with the College of Nursing and Health Professions Office of Academic Assistance. Students must be in good Academic Standing at Georgia State University in order to continue as transient students at the University. Transient students who are not in good academic standing will not be allowed to continue taking courses as transient students in the College of Nursing and Health Professions per the University Re-entry Definition (see section 1110.10  in this catalog). If the student wishes to enroll in courses other than those listed in the original letter of good standing, the home institution must submit a new letter indicating approval of those courses.

Although the university cannot guarantee the availability of space in desired courses, every effort will be made to assist students in the registration process. The student is responsible for requesting that transcripts of grades earned at Georgia State be sent to the home institution. Transient students who do not remain in good academic standing at Georgia State University may not be allowed to continue taking courses in the College of Nursing and Health Professions.

5020.20 International Student Admission

It is the policy of Georgia State University to encourage the enrollment of students from other countries. The University subscribes to the principles of international education and to the basic concept that only through education and understanding can mutual respect, appreciation and tolerance of others be accomplished. The recognition of the values of cultural exchange is inherent in our philosophy of education and is predicated on an awareness of the need to foster better cooperation, friendship, and understanding among the peoples of the world. In this regard, we welcome international students to our campus because we believe in a cultural exchange program which will be beneficial to our own student body, to the international students involved, and to metropolitan Atlanta.

Academic Credentials: Applicants who have completed all or part of their education outside the United States are required to have their foreign credentials evaluated by an independent evaluation service. For graduate admissions, the College of Nursing and Health Professions recommends Josef Silny and Associates, Inc. (www.jsilny.com). The college will also accept evaluations of foreign credentials from Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc. (www.ece.org) and World Education Services (www.wes.org). If Josef Silny & Associates is used as the independent evaluation service, transcripts do not have to be provided by the applicant. Academic credentials must be original documents with authoritative signatures, seals, stamps, etc. Whenever possible, these should be sent by the institution responsible for issuing such documents. In cases where it is impossible for an applicant to have these credentials sent from such institutions, the applicant should forward a duly “notarized” or “attested to” copy. The notarization should be done by the proper institutional official or by the Ministry of Education in the home country. Documents in a language other than English must be accompanied by translations. Translations should be made by the home country embassy or an appropriate official, and the original copies of the translations, acceptably notarized as described above, must be provided. As a general rule, documents translated by the Office of the American Friends of the Middle East (AFME) or the Institute of International Education (IIE) will be acceptable.

A student who does not enroll for the semester for which acceptance was granted should notify the department they have been admitted to of their decision to change their semester of entry. In most programs, students who do not enroll for the semester they are accepted are not guaranteed admission in a subsequent semester. Students generally have to reapply to the program and must be reconsidered for admission.

5020.40 Re-entry Students

A re-entry student is a student who has been enrolled at Georgia State University and who:

1. Has not registered for courses at Georgia State during the previous 12 months; or
2. Attended any semester as a transient student and wishes to attend an additional semester as a transient student.

Graduate students in the College of Nursing and Health Professions may only re-enter the same graduate program or status in which they were last enrolled. Students must additionally be approved for re-entry through their division. Students who have attended Georgia State University in both undergraduate and graduate categories may apply to re-enter in either category. Reentry applications for Undergraduate Students are submitted online to the Office of Admissions at admissions.gsu.edu. Graduate students may obtain applications through the college website. Transient students should refer to the “Transient Student Admission” section in this chapter.

5020.50 Tuition Deposit

Graduate students in the Byrdine F. Lewis College of Nursing and Health Professions are responsible for knowledge of all regulations and procedures of the school, the university, and of the program or status in which they are enrolled. Enrollment in a program constitutes a students’ acknowledgment that they are obligated to comply with all academic and administrative regulations and degree requirements. Students are encouraged to read carefully the general regulations that follow and those specifically pertaining to their program.

5030.10 Transfer of Credit

Students who have completed graduate courses at other institutions prior to enrollment at Georgia State University may request that those courses be evaluated for transfer of credit to the College of Nursing and Health Professions. The request for transfer credit must be made by the student. Only those courses that are deemed to be appropriate to the student’s program of study in the college can be transferred. Transferred credits will be included in the year limitation placed on credits applicable to the degree.

Students who wish to enroll in courses at another institution after acceptance to a graduate program in the College of Nursing and Health Professions and wish to apply those courses to their graduate program at Georgia State University, must first obtain written approval from their advisor, the graduate director/coordinator, and any other appropriate persons. Students will not be allowed to enroll in courses to be transferred back to Georgia State University during the semester he or she expects to graduate from Georgia State University.

The maximum amount of credit that may be transferred is nine semester hours. Exceptions to this rule will be granted on an individual basis.

5030.20 Academic Warning and Suspension

Each student admitted to a graduate program in the Byrdine F. Lewis College of Nursing and Health Professions must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.00. A student whose cumulative grade point average falls below 3.00 at the end of a semester will be placed on Academic Warning. The student will be notified of this standing by the College of Nursing and Health Professions Office of Academic Assistance. If a 3.00 cumulative grade point average is not achieved by the end of the next twelve semester hours or two semesters, whichever is longer, of completed course work approved by the faculty advisor, the student will be suspended from the graduate program. Students in provisional status or non-degree status must achieve a 3.00 cumulative grade point average by the end of their period in that status, however individual programs may not allow students in these categories to continue if their cumulative grade point average falls below 3.00. Transient students must maintain a 3.00 cumulative grade point average in order to continue in that status. Transient students who do not maintain a 3.00 cumulative grade point average may be subject to academic suspension. A student may apply for reinstatement after one semester as a suspended student. Application for reinstatement must be made no later than six weeks prior to the first day of classes for the semester in which reinstatement is sought.

The academic standing policies for the Doctor in Physical Therapy (D.P.T.) and the Master’s and Doctoral Nursing programs differ from those above. Please refer to the section on the D.P.T. program for policies and the Nursing polices that pertain to students in those programs.

Each department may have additional policies related to academic progression. Students should refer to the applicable student handbooks.

5030.30 Changing Catalog Editions

Students will normally satisfy the degree requirements of the catalog in effect at the time they enter the graduate program in the College of Nursing and Health Professions. Revisions may be required to provide more effective programs. Degree requirements include the courses and grades required to earn the degree. A change in an academic regulation such as academic standing policy or appeals procedures will affect all students regardless of catalog edition.

Students will be required to change catalog editions when they reenter the university after a period of two or more consecutive years in which they have earned no academic credit at Georgia State University. Some graduate programs in the College of Nursing and Health Professions may have stricter requirements on changing catalog editions.

5030.40 Continuous Enrollment

Students in all graduate programs must maintain enrollment totaling 6 hours (or more) over all consecutive three semester periods (including summers). In other words, the total enrollment of the current term plus the two terms preceding it must add to 6 hours or more at all times. The status of all students will be checked by the midpoint of each term for compliance with the continuous enrollment requirement. Any student whose enrollment is out of compliance may receive a registration hold preventing all current and future registration. Those students will be notified by an email message sent to their official Georgia State University email account.

To resume their programs, students with continuous enrollment holds must file for re-entry by the published deadline and must enroll at a level sufficient to satisfy the continuous enrollment criterion. That is, their enrollment in the re-entry term plus the two terms preceding it must total to 6 hours or more. The maximum required enrollment level for the re-entry term is 6 hours. For more information on the re-entry process, see section 1110 .
