Program Contacts, Advising & Application Deadlines

Graduate student academic advising is typically performed by the Graduate Program Director but may be accomplished by a combination of professional academic advisors and faculty members. Prospective students should contact the Program Contact listed below with any questions they have about the program of interest. If you have not yet been in touch with the Program Contact, please do so at your earliest convenience. They are happy to discuss your path to earning a graduate degree that helps you achieve your goals!

The dates below represent the date when the application, application fee, transcripts, test scores, and all supplemental materials must be received by the Graduate School. If applicable, collection holds and judicial holds must be cleared prior to the deadline. For further details, please review the program site. Incomplete applications with outstanding requirements, or those post-marked after the posted deadline, are subject to cancellation. Once an application has been canceled, the decision can not be reversed. Applicants may apply for the next application cycle.
  • Graduate Pre-requisites (non-degree)

    The Graduate Pre-requisites (non-degree) option is reserved for students who have earned a baccalaureate degree from an accepted institutional accreditor and wish to take graduate level coursework, but are not admitted into a degree seeking graduate program. Not all programs accept graduate non-degree applicants and enrollment eligibility is based on several factors including, but not limited to, permission from the program director and instructor of record, and class capacity.
