Preface: All applicants must follow the application procedures established
by their appropriate service's regulations. For specific information about
services' procedures, contact respective career activities/education office(s).
General procedures for applying for the Army-Baylor Graduate Program in Health and Business Administration are as follows:
1. Satisfy all prerequisites for matriculation into the Program.
The prerequisites for applicants to the Program include:
A. Federal Service employment
B. Baccalaureate degree or first professional degree from an accredited educational
institution
C. Composite Verbal and Quantitative Graduate Record Examination (GRE) score
of 1050, or a score of 525 (MHA only)/ 575 (joint MHA/MBA) on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) taken within the past five years
D. Cumulative 2.9 undergraduate grade point average (GPA) on a 4.0 scale or
a GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale
2. Prior to submitting application to the respective career activity office,
officers will submit undergraduate and graduate transcripts with a letter
to the Education Technician requesting evaluation by Baylor University, Waco,
Texas (transcripts may be unofficial copies at this time). Also, applicants
should submit unofficial copies of GRE or GMAT scores, if available.
Baylor will not make an evaluation until all transcripts are received, to include
schools where only a one-hour course was taken. Baylor requires a transcript from every school attended and will not evaluate courses for a school listed on another institution's transcript. Baylor will not accept "student grade report forms" in lieu of a transcript. We cannot emphasize this enough. Baylor is very strict
in its requirements.
If you attended a form of schooling where there is no transcript available, or you took the CLEP, please make note of this in your letter of request for evaluation. Remember, Baylor (not the military) has the final say as to whether or not an officer attends this program. Following the evaluation, an assessment sheet with a cover letter will be returned to the officer. For Army officers, a copy of this assessment sheet and cover letter will be submitted with the officer's application to PERSCOM. Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard officers will follow their service directives. It is the officer's responsibility to contact us to ensure that everything has been received for an evaluation. When officers have been advised by their appropriate military services that they have been approved to attend the program, the officer should write each undergraduate and graduate school attended and request one certified transcript be sent to:
BLDG 2841 MCCS-HGE-HA (EDUCATION TECHNICIAN)
3151 SCOTT ROAD
FORT SAM HOUSTON, TX 78234-6135
3. Additionally, request the GRE or GMAT testing center send a certified
copy of test results to Institution Code 6861. Officers must use the GRE or
GMAT score request form. The form may be obtained from the testing center
or the Post/Base education office.
4. If you are selected by your service for attendance at the Army- Baylor
Graduate Program in Health and Business Administration, you will be contacted
by the Program Administration Office via letter for final processing. If you
have a change of address before you hear from us, please notify us immediately. It may be several months before you hear from us after being
notified by your branch!
PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT BAYLOR UNIVERSITY IN WACO DIRECTLY!!!
5. If you have any questions, please call the Education Technician: DSN
471-6443, or commerical 210-221-6443.
