The statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, and required test scores are submitted electronically through the graduate application portal. If the academic department requires a résumé, it is also submitted electronically. To fulfill the recommendation requirement, the applicant will submit the names and email addresses of three people who have agreed to submit a recommendation and these individuals will receive an email request from the Graduate School. Their timely response is critical to the student’s application process. Applications are not processed until the application fee has been paid.
Transcripts
An applicant must request an official transcript from the bachelor’s degree institution and from each college or university attended following the bachelor’s degree. If fewer than 60-70 hours were completed at the institution which awarded the bachelor’s degree, an official transcript from the previous institution(s) is required as well. The department may require previous transcripts to verify prerequisites. The official transcript must be in a sealed envelope bearing the institution’s return address with the Registrar’s signature or stamp across the flap.
