Admissions Petition

<p>Hello, </p>

<p>I'm doing a bit of research for my wife. She is completing her RBA at WVU in December and wants to continue her education with a MA in Special Ed, also from WVU. The problem is that her GPA (mostly due to a bad start to college in 2004) will only be 2.5 when she graduates. The MA program at WVU requires 2.75. She's asked the Chair of the Special Ed department what can be done to admit her and she said nothing.</p>

<p>So, what can really be done? </p>

<p>She was thinking of asking the Dean of Student Services to act on her behalf. I'm not sure if this is worth it or not. She hasn't taken any college classes since 2011 before completing her RBA. Has anyone ever petitioned a university for admittance with credentials less than what they require? </p>

<p>Where should she go from here?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You might also want to post this on the Parents forum for input.</p>

<p>Thanks. Will do.</p>
