News From The Engineering Admissions Team

Important Note: You are only able to apply for ONE graduate program at Santa Clara University within any given quarter. Please email us if you have any questions.

1:1 Admission Advising Sessions: Do you have questions about the application, transcripts, or deadlines? You can now schedule a 1:1 meeting to discuss your interest in our engineering graduate programs.

Admissions Information Sessions (via Zoom) are now available. Sign up for one of our upcoming sessions. Hear from our admissions team about our programs, followed by an open forum for questions.


GRE is only required for the M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering (and all PhD candidates).  All other masters programs in the School of Engineering do not require a GRE

For students applying to the M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering, GRE (Graduate Record Examination) will only be waived  for those who hold a degree in Computer Science or Computer Engineering from an accredited U.S. Institution. (Effective 10/19/2023)

Open University Program

The Open University Program is a non-degree program limited to 16 units with options to apply for a M.S. degree. Engineers who wish to update their skills or learn new technologies without pursuing a specific degree may enroll.

Open University allows the students to:

  • Examine a field of study before enrolling in a degree program
  • Enhance your professional training
  • Attend on a regular or noncontinuous basis, depending on your own needs
  • Get a head start by enrolling in classes while waiting for admission/transfer to a degree program

If you are a current SCU Undergraduate Student, please do not fill out any application form before contacting the Graduate Engineering Office. If you are interested in the B.S./M.S. Program, click the button above and email us a PDF copy of your unofficial transcript from WorkDay (free to download). We will advise you on next steps directly via email.
