Admission

Students have two opportunities to begin the online A.S. in Emergency Services Administration each year.

We offer rolling admissions, so there is no deadline to apply. However, we recommend submitting your application as soon as possible, as the application review process will end two weeks prior to the start of each semester.

Admission Requirements

Students must meet the College of Professional and Continuing Studies (CPCS) requirements for admission to the program. These requirements include:

• High school diploma or GED
• A minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA on a four-point scale.

Students who have received public safety training may be eligible to earn Life Experience Credits. G.I. Bill benefits are also available and military personnel can benefit from the Concurrent Admissions Program (ConAP), which allows soon-to-enlist or currently enlisted military personnel to enroll in and complete college courses while they continue their service commitments. An Enrollment Counselor can help you navigate your options.

Application Materials

In order to complete the application, all candidates must submit the following:

• Completed application
• Official high school transcripts and all previous college transcripts. See below for more information.
• Personal statement/essay that demonstrates your intellectual promise and your motivation to engage in college-level work.
