Admission Requirements

MS/DI Program

Applicants are required to complete a baccalaureate degree with a minimum grade point average of 3.0. All applicants must complete the Graduate Record Exam General Test with a minimum score of 1000 on the combined verbal and quantitative sections (institutional code 3028).

Students should apply using the American Dietetic Association's (ADA) national computer matching process. It is our policy that every student matched to our program will be guaranteed financial aid in the amount of $10,000-$15,000.

All applicants to the MS/DI program must complete a Boston University Sargent College Graduate School Application, an ADA Didactic Program Verification Statement, and an ADA Dietetic Internship Application. Students must only submit the ADA recommendation forms, not the Boston University Sargent College recommendation forms. ADA recommendation forms should be completed by individuals who are familiar with the student’s academic ability and/or professional work experience. Candidates must comply with all deadlines set forth by the ADA. The DI application can be found on the Dietetic Educators of Practitioners web site.

Application Deadline

Candidates for the MS/DI program must comply with all deadlines set forth by the ADA. The postmark deadline for applications is February 15.
