Provisional Admission
What is Provisional Admission?
Applicants to degree programs who meet the requirements for admission but still need to provide final official documents (including official transcripts, proof of degree, or I-20 requirements), may be considered for provisional admission.
For those admitted provisionally using transcripts uploaded to the application portal, the Graduate School must receive an official transcript and proof of degree(s) directly from each institution to verify your academic credentials. If you are currently enrolled, official transcripts should be sent after final grades have posted and your degree has been awarded. Learn how to send official transcripts.
In addition to final official transcripts and proof of degree(s), international students who hope to receive or transfer an I-20 must supply financial documentation, a copy of your passport or current visa, and satisfactory proof of immunization compliance. Review more information about these requirements.
If this additional documentation is not provided by the first day of the semester or, if an international student, by the I-20 deadline, our offer of provisional admission will be reevaluated and rescinded.
