How to apply

Entry requirements for Montana State University

A completed B.S. or Bachelor of Engineering degree in an engineering field ly related to the degree program you plan to enter. Examples: MS Civil Engineering – BS in civil engineering, geotechnical engineering, architectural engineering… MS Environmental Engineering – BS in civil engineering, chemical engineering, bioengineering. We require a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.00 or higher on a 4.00 scale. Having the minimum GPA does not guarantee acceptance, and there may be rare cases where applicants are accepted with a cumulative GPA of slightly less than the minimum because of other positive attributes. Official transcripts are required. When you submit your official transcripts, include those for ALL university studies not just the program that you graduated from. We require three letters of recommendation. The general GRE exam is required. We do not require a minimum score on the GRE. We generally consider GRE scores below the 50th percentile to negatively affect an applicant, and scores above the 50th percentile to positively affect the applicant. The Institution Code for MSU is 4488. It takes some time to schedule an exam and get scores back, so please consider taking the exam a month or two prior to starting the application process. Our application requires a goals statement. This is a formal essay where you identify the topic area you want to study (geotechnical, water resources…) and let us know why you are interested in pursuing a graduate degree. We use this as an additional measure of writing ability as well. Evidence of English language proficiency - Internet-based TOEFL Test (iBT) 80, Paper-based TOEFL Test (PBT) 550, IELTS - 6.5
