After your online university application is complete, this is the time to submit your program application. Please check out the application requirements by program by visiting their specific page. Although this is a two step process you may apply to both the program and university at the same time. Official admission letters will be sent from the Graduate Programs Office to your provided email.
Process: You will be notified via email regarding the status of your application throughout the process, including any missing components. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.

Paper transcripts must be unopened and bear the college or university seal. Electronic transcripts are accepted if sent from the registrar or institution’s secured electronic submission system (such as Parchment, EDI).
