These students would need to meet the standards set by the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/graduate\/\">College of Graduate Studies,<\/a>&nbsp;waiving the current GRE requirement and higher GPA for applicants coming from within Tarleton. After acceptance, students would then be counseled by program faculty into their respective concentrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The purpose of this guaranteed program is to offer students a safety net in the current turbulent job and academic markets, and in concert with the online availability of the Environmental Science master\u2019s program, allow for students to continue their studies in safety. Additionally, this program furthers our relationships with surrounding junior colleges with our current and future transfer agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All recent alumni and current seniors of Environmental Science and related majors are encouraged to apply.
