 Graduate Program:
Masters of Criminal Justice
Admission Requirements:
- A baccalaureate degree in Criminal
Justice. Applicants with degrees in related fields (sociology,
psychology, public administration, political science, government, or
the like) will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and may be
required to complete a course of study or a pro-seminar course in
criminal justice as a prerequisite to being admitted to the Criminal
Justice Graduate Program.
- A GPA of 3.0 in the major and
3.0 in the last 60 units attempted.
- A letter outlining in some detail
the applicant’s experience, interests, goals, and expectations
in pursuing the MS in Criminal Justice. This will assist us in
assigning an initial advisor.
- Submission of
Graduate Record Examination scores including the
Analytical Writing scores of 4.0 or better.
- Three letters of recommendation from
the student’s former faculty who can evaluate the applicant’s
potential for graduate study. Applicants applying after having been
out of college for several years may have recommendations submitted
by their employers or other professionals.
If you have any questions regarding these requirements or other matters
concerning our graduate program, please contact Dr. Farmer at (916)

The Graduate Handbook for the
Master of Science in Criminal Justice
The Graduate Handbook is a vital
resource for both graduate students and faculty teaching graduate level courses.
It is the primary document for answering the majority of the questions that will
arise during a student’s participation in the graduate program. Occasionally, questions arise that may not be addressed by the Manual. In those
cases, students or faculty shall direct their questions to the Graduate
Coordinator for resolution.
