Transcripts should be accompanied by official English translations if they are in another language. Translations should be done through a reputable and accredited translation service. Transcripts will need to be evaluated if issued from a country where the education system is different from the U.S. such as a three year bachelor’s degree. We accept evaluations from World Education Service (WES) and also from evaluators that are a member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). Be sure to request a detailed evaluation that includes all course titles, credit hours, grades, recommended United States degree equivalency, grade-point average (GPA), and date of degree conferral. Verified transcripts and evaluations should then be forwarded to Marxe admissions.

A bachelor’s degree or equivalent is required.

For any school where you have pursued 9 or more credits, you must submit the official transcript from the original institution. You may submit unofficial copies at the time of application and follow up later with official copies.

The recommendation letter must be signed and should come directly from the recommender’s professional email address. It should also be on official letterhead and accompanied by the recommendation form, which is available in PDF format in the recommendation section of the online application. Please be in touch if your recommenders encounter any challenges submitting their recommendations.
