GRE Code

The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test measures verbal, quantitative, and analytical skills that have been acquired over a long period of time and that are not related to any specific field. The GRE consists of 3 separate sections: Verbal Ability, Quantitative Ability and Analytical Ability.

The MUPAP requires only the GRE for admissions. No other standardized test will be accepted or used as a replacement for this requirement. Scores must be within five years of application to the program. No applicant may be exempt from submitting GRE scores regardless of the level of previous education or experience.

GRE scores must be sent directly to CASPA via our school code of 0399. The MUPAP recommends a combined score of:

• Tests taken prior to August 1, 2011: 1050 or higher
• Tests taken on or after August 1, 2011: 297-300 or higher

It is strongly recommended applicants have prior preparation for the GRE. Applicants may visit www.gre.org for assistance in obtaining online tutorials or workbooks.
