The completed application form is submitted with the application fee to the Bursar's office. Applicants must send one transcript from each college or university attended, except YSU, to the School of Graduate Studies. Transcripts must be sent directly from the institution. Personal or unofficial transcripts issued to the student or those delivered or sent by the applicant instead of the institution will not be accepted.

Applications for admission cannot be reviewed until official transcripts of all previous college or university work are received. The applicant must see that these reach the School of Graduate Studies at the earliest possible date. Omission of information on the application form will necessitate requests for additional information and therefore delay processing of the application. so the applicant should provide all the information requested in the first submission of materials. International applicants should also see the section International Student Admission for additional requirements.

As soon as possible after receipt of application materials. the Graduate Dean will notify the student of the action taken on the application and, if the student is admitted, will provide information on registration procedures.
