Graduate Change of Major-How to Apply
- Print and complete application
View and print the
Application to Another Graduate Major. The application will be presented
as a PDF document. You will need to have a PDF reader, such as Adobe
Acrobat, to view this application. (DO NOT USE
THE APPLYTEXAS ONLINE APPLICATION WHEN APPLYING TO CHANGE GRADUATE PROGRAMS.)
Completed applications should be mailed to:
Graduate & International Admissions Center
The University of Texas at Austin
P.O. Box 7608
Austin, Texas 78713-7608
- Pay your application fee
If you have been absent for one long semester or more, you are required
to submit a nonrefundable $50 readmission fee or submit an approved
Leave of Absence form. You may pay the fee by providing credit card
information on the application form or by check or money order made
payable to The University of Texas at Austin.
Write your UT EID or SSN (nine digit) on your check or money order.
If you were granted a Leave
of Absence, you may present a copy of your approved Leave of Absence
form to have the $50 application fee waived. This form may be obtained
from your graduate program and must include the appropriate signatures.
If you are currently enrolled in the Graduate School at the University
of Texas at Austin, you do not have to pay a fee to apply to another
graduate program unless you are moving from the Graduate School to the
Graduate School of Business or vice versa.
Applications requiring a fee will not be processed until the fee or
Leave of Absence form is received.
- Submit official transcripts to GIAC
You should complete the Transcript Request Form provided with
the application and submit it along with $10 to the Office of the Registrar
(Main Building, Room 1). This will cover the cost of duplicating your
academic record. You do not need to furnish transcripts of work done
at other institutions if the work has been posted to your permanent
record at UT Austin. (If you entered UT Austin prior to 1974, the transcripts
of work at other institutions are no longer on file and must be submitted
anew.)
Note: If you have attended another senior college or university since
you were last enrolled at UT Austin, you must provide an official transcript
for evaluation in addition to the transcripts on file in the Office
of the Registrar. Transcripts should be sent to the Graduate & International
Admissions Center at the address above.
- Submit an official test score to GIAC
If you presented a valid score in the past, the Graduate & International
Admission Center will require no further reports. Consult the graduate
program to which you are applying to check on departmental test score
requirements.
- Additional Supporting Documents
Many graduate programs require letters of recommendation, a statement
of purpose, or other supporting documents. You should check with the
Graduate Adviser in your proposed program to determine what additional
documents to provide.
Three Request for Reference forms and a Statement of Purpose
form are provided with the application. Also provided is the Supplemental
Information for Graduate Program form which most programs prefer
you to complete. These supporting documents and any others requested
by the department should be mailed directly to the Graduate Adviser
at the address below.
