Seeking a graduate degree? The GRE® General Test measures critical thinking, analytical writing, verbal
reasoning, and quantitative reasoning skills that are acquired through academic experience and are not
related to any specific field of study. The GRE is required for a variety of master’s degree and doctoral
degree programs. Master’s in Education (ME), Social Work (MSW), Nurse Practitioner (NP), Business, and
Public Administration programs often require or accept the GRE General Test.

The live-online GRE Prep Course is offered online using Adobe Connect, a free application. All you need to
participate in live-online classes or live-online office hours are a high-speed internet connection and
speakers or headphones.
