Application Checklist

Applying to Graduate School at the 欧美三级片 is as easy as 1,2,3!

Before You Apply

1. Find your program, get in touch with your graduate coordinator, and prepare your supporting materials. They鈥檙e a great resource for department-specific questions, especially about the availability of funding and program expectations. Most graduate programs require additional supporting materials, like a statement of purpose, resume, writing sample, etc. Make time to gather and prepare these materials.

2. Talk to potential references for your letters of recommendation. The Graduate School requires three letters of recommendation as part of your application. Seek out individuals who can speak to your academic and professional experience as well as your potential for success in graduate studies. For best practices and more information, check out our blog about getting great letters of recommendation.

3. Request all transcripts and required test scores from your respective institutions. They can sometimes take a while to arrive and, the sooner we get them, the faster your application will be ready for review!
