Application Process

Applicants will apply to both the School of Graduate Studies and their desired Degree/Program Option. Approved applicants will be admitted to School of Graduate Studies first. However, this does not mean they are admitted to their desired Degree/Program Option. That process is handled by each program individually, and due to required applicant knowledge, essential dispositions, and/or mandated accreditation requirements, may take more time to complete.
