Admission Requirements

Admission of new participants to takes place only in the summer semester of every other year. Currently APC plans for only one program to be running at a time, though this may change in the future. Once admitted as a cohort, a group of students will proceed through the six semester program together, with no students being admitted partway through a cohort’s program. Each admission cycle deliberately seeks to create a cooperative cohort group in which the members benefit from a diversity of backgrounds, professional experience, social, political, global perspectives, and career goals.

The program requires a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. Previous major field of study is not a consideration. Academic work must indicate the ability to perform successfully in the program as well as meet minimum graduate school standards of a grade B or better in all courses. GRE test scores are not required. Interested individuals are encouraged to call (808) 942-0698.
