Once you choose your program and determine your application type, please review the application requirements, including general application information for the university, the residency policy, and specific requirements for individual programs, before beginning your application.
University Requirements
An official transcript from the institution from which you earned your Bachelor degree is required, as well as transcripts from those institutions where any graduate level courses or degrees have been taken or completed. Applicants are not required to submit an official transcript of courses taken or completed at Â鶹´«Ã½. Departments may request additional course information or transcripts as necessary.
See specific program requirements for details. International applicants may be asked to provide evidence of English language proficiency.
All documents submitted become the property of Â鶹´«Ã½ and cannot be returned to the applicant or released to other institutions.
Submission of Your Application
Be prepared to pay a nonrefundable application fee online by credit card—$50 for domestic applicants and $100 for international applicants. You will not be able to submit the application without paying the application fee. Payments are processed through a secure server. Please note, programs using a Central Application Service (CAS) where you can apply to multiple schools at once may charge higher fees for this service.
Check your entries as you work; you cannot make changes after you submit the completed application. If you find an error after you’ve submitted the application, use the contact information indicated below. Do not submit a second application.
Your application will be considered complete after all official transcripts, required test scores, or required recommendations are received. Final decisions are made by the academic departments, and the length of the admission process varies by department.
