US Graduate Admission-How to Apply
- Complete the ApplyTexas online application
This is the fastest, easiest way for you to submit your application
and is our preferred method for receiving applications.
- Pay your application fee
You can pay by Visa or MasterCard when you fill out your online application.
Alternately, you may mail in your fee payment in the form of a check
or money order in U.S. dollars to:
Graduate and International Admissions Center
The University of Texas at Austin
P.O. Box 7608
Austin, Texas 78713-7608
Write your Application ID number (six digit), UT EID, or SSN (nine digit)
on your check or money order.
The application processing fee for U.S. applicants for all programs
other than those involving the Graduate School of Business is $50. The
fee for the Master in Professional Accounting program is $80. The fee
for the MBA program and Dual Degree programs with MBA as a part of that
program is $125. Some U.S. or permanent resident applicants to the Graduate
School may be eligible for a waiver
of the application fee on the basis of documented financial need.
If you are a current or former UT Austin student, add $10 to the above
stated fees to cover the cost of your UT transcripts and duplicating
your academic record. Do not order transcripts directly from the UT
registrar as this will slow processing considerably.
Your application will not be processed unless the fee has been paid.
The application fee is NOT refundable.
- Submit official transcripts to GIAC
Mail your official transcripts to:
Graduate and International Admissions Center
The University of Texas at Austin
P.O. Box 7608
Austin, Texas 78713-7608
You must provide an official copy of the academic transcript from every
senior college attended. Unofficial transcripts--those that do not bear
the facsimile signature of the registrar and seal of the issuing institution--are
not acceptable. Photocopies (even notarized ones) are NOT considered
official. Transcripts are not required from junior colleges and community
colleges.
Even if courses taken at one institution are recorded on another college's
transcript, transcripts must be submitted from the institution at which
courses were taken. Transcripts must have been produced by the sending
institution within the past calendar year.
You can speed the processing of your application by having your transcript(s)
sent electronically. Institutions that are on the Texas Electronic
Transcript Network or which use the national ANSI ASC X12 transcript
format (SPEEDE) can provide electronic transcripts. GIAC prefers to
receive electronic transcripts because they can be processed much faster
than paper transcripts. Check with the registrar of your institution
to find out if transcripts can be sent electronically.
- Submit an official test score to GIAC
Check with the program to which you are applying to see which test you
should take. Plan to take the GRE or GMAT in time to have the results
reported to UT Austin before the recommended application date. To be
considered official, scores must be sent directly from the testing agency.
Test scores more than five years old will not be accepted. NOTE: Some
programs do not require a test score to be considered for admission.
Check with the program to which you are applying.
The Educational Testing Service (ETS) code for the University of
Texas at Austin is 6882. Test scores sent to this code are made available
to all graduate departments.
- BE SURE TO CONTACT THE PROGRAM TO WHICH YOU ARE APPLYING
Most programs have additional requirements and application
materials that you must complete before they will consider your application
for admission. Deadlines are set by individual graduate programs. Click
here for a list of graduate programs.
Note: Application materials, including test scores and transcripts,
are kept for one calendar year. If you have made application in the past,
you may be required to re-submit certain credentials.
