General procedures for applying for the U.S. Army-Baylor University Graduate Program in Health Care Administration are as follows:
1. Satisfy all prerequisites for matriculation into the Program.
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 (this includes those schools where only a one hour course was taken), so please keep this in mind when sending in transcripts. Baylor requires a transcript from every school attended. Baylor will not evaluate courses for a school listed on another school's transcript. Baylor will not accept "student grade report forms" in lieu of 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 course. 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 and Air Force 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:
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 can be obtained from the testing center or the Post/Base education office.
4. If you are selected by your service for attendance at the U.S. Army- Baylor University Graduate Program in Health Care Administration, you will be contacted by the Program Administration Office by letter for final processing. If you have a change of address before you hear from us, please notify us of your address change. It may be several months before you hear from us after being notified by your branch!
