What happens after I apply?
The Admissions Committee screens applications, invites some applicants for an interview,
evaluates the applicants and selects new students. Following the completion of the
admissions process, each applicant is notified in writing of the Admissions Committee
decision, including any conditions that must be satisfied prior to or following enrollment.
Due to COVID-19, we will conduct online interviews with applicants.
The Program director may evaluate a student's life/work experience for credit after
a student has been accepted into the program.
The program utilizes a rolling admissions policy, so applications will be considered
throughout the year as they are received. Students will be accepted into the program
until the desired class size is achieved, therefore it is recommended for candidates
to submit applications early. Students are accepted and enrolled for each term (summer,
fall, winter and spring).
As an applicant to PCOM's graduate programs, you are responsible for ensuring that
all admissions materials are completed accurately and submitted in a timely manner.
Background check requirement
In an effort to foster the safety and well-being of the entire campus communities,
as well as to ensure that students accepted to PCOM will be permitted to perform clerkships/internships
required to successfully complete their degree requirements, PCOM requires all first-year
students to complete a criminal background check prior to matriculation. All students
must have their criminal background checks processed through a PCOM vendor of choice.
The Admissions Office will send notification of the process after confirmation of
enrollment and must have this information on file prior to orientation; students will
not be allowed to start classes without this information.
Prior to enrollment, all candidates are required to complete PCOM's Technical Standards for Admission and Matriculation (PDF).
