Admission Requirements

To apply to The University of Alabama Graduate School, you must hold the equivalent of a U.S. four-year bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution. You must also meet all Graduate School requirements and program-specific requirements.

We consider many three-year degrees to be equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree.

English Language Proficiency Score Requirements

You must submit a copy of your English language proficiency score report at the time of application unless you meet at least one of the following criteria:

1. You hold a degree from an institution in a recognized English-speaking country.

2. You have been enrolled in coursework for at least two years in a recognized English-speaking country.

3. You are a citizen or legal resident of a recognized English-speaking country.

Scores must be fewer than two years old at the time of application. Some programs have higher English language proficiency score requirements. Please refer to the program portal for your academic program’s specific requirements. The University of Alabama Graduate School does accept super-scores (such as a TOEFL MyBest™ score). Official English language proficiency scores, which must be sent directly from the testing agency to The Graduate School, will not be required until after admission.
