After submitting the application fee, please provide the transcripts of the advanced colleges you attended. Even if the course of one school is recorded on the transcript of another university, you must submit the transcript of your institution. Failure to list all universities in the application form and provide transcripts will be regarded as intentional omission, which may lead to the cancellation of your application for admission or your admission notice.
Official records shall be signed by the registrar and sealed by the issuing agency. The transcripts of American universities or colleges must be published in the latest calendar year. Transcripts should include printed degree certificates unless the course is still in progress. Transcripts published in non-English must be accompanied by English translation.
Each report must include a complete study record of the institution that issued the report (that is, the subjects studied and the results of each subject). If your college or university uses SPEEDE service, you can send your electronic report card to the school through this service. Contact the registration office of your university to see if you can send transcripts through the SPEEDE server.
Otherwise, please use the school certificate upload system to create and upload the official paper transcript PDF file sent to you by the Registry. The school will consider it informal, but it can be used as part of your application for admission. You should modify your social security number from the report before uploading, but other modifications are not allowed. The complete report card uploading guide can be found in the downloadable report card uploading guide in official website.
The school does not accept electronic transcripts issued by registered institutions or third-party institutions in any other form (such as e-mail or links to secure websites). Please don't send official transcripts or paper copies of transcripts to the school before entering the school. Sending a paper transcript will greatly delay the processing time of your application.
Students applying for a master's degree in auditing and nursing must submit transcripts from colleges or community schools.
Former students
Students who studied in Austin, Texas, will automatically pay a report card fee of $20, which can be paid through what I owe. Don't send transcripts directly from the school registration office, because it will slow down the application process.
5.？ Submit test scores
Ask the relevant examination institutions to send your GRE or GMAT official test scores to the school, and check the relevant application of the course to see which one is necessary. You should take all the exams on the specified exam date, otherwise, your score will be considered incomplete and cannot be reviewed by the school as part of your application.
International students applying to the University of Texas at Austin must submit a formal TOEFL or IELTS report to prove that they have enough knowledge of English. The school does not accept institutional TOEFL scores. Please check the website of the course you are interested in to determine which exam is better.
International applicants from countries where English is the only official language are not subject to this requirement. In addition, if the applicant has a bachelor's degree from an American university or a university in a country where English is the only official language, this requirement can also be ignored. (Please note that the Master of Professional Accounting requires all international students to submit an English proficiency test). Applicants who have obtained a master's degree from similar institutions but not a bachelor's degree must meet this requirement.
① receiving test results
If the school is designated as the score receiver during the exam, then the school will usually receive your exam results four to six weeks after the exam. If you send the results of previous exams, they must still be valid at the beginning of the new semester you apply for (GRE or GMAT scores are valid for five years, TOEFL or IELTS scores are valid for two years).
② school code
The institutional code of GRE and TOEFL in education examination service is 6882. The institution code of GMAT is 396-44-45. You don't have to use the department code, but if you have to choose one, choose a code similar to the major you are applying for. If IELTS test scores are used to meet this requirement, it is necessary to send formal paper test scores reports to graduate students and international student enrollment centers.
6.？ Complete the requirements of the department
Before the course considers your application for admission, there are some course requirements that you must meet. Check the website of the course you applied for and find the guide for submitting additional supporting documents. Most courses can upload additional required materials through MyStatus.
