University of Arizona - Main - Tucson
How to apply
Students who have completed a minimum of 75 units are eligible to apply, usually early in the second semester of the student’s junior year (September or January). The student must create an account in GradApp (https://apply.grad.arizona.edu) and pay a $90 appliction fee and submit an online application to the Environmental Engineering AMP. (See https://grad.arizona.edu/catalog/programinfo/CHEMSCHEAMP) for more details. Once students have completed 90 units (usually at the end of their junior year’s second semester) and have a 3.30 or higher GPA, they may be accepted into the AMP. After acceptance to the AMP program, students register during their senior (fourth) year to take a combination of undergraduate and graduate courses and are classified as undergraduate students. The graduate courses can double-count, serving both as electives for the BS degree and as core or elective courses for the MS.
In order to be fully admitted into the MS Graduate Program, early in the second semester of their senior year (usually January), the AMP student must submit a new application for the MS in Chemical Engineering in order to be fully accepted into the CHEE MS program. The student will not be charged an application fee for this simplified application. An automatic application fee waiver will be granted. After completing the BS, students are then eligible to be fully accepted as MS degree students and matriculate into the graduate program. In the fifth and final year, students focus on graduate course work and their thesis or project. After completing the BS, students are then eligible to be fully accepted as MS degree students. In the fifth and final year, students focus on graduate course work and their thesis or project.
