What is Priority Processing?

Completing the Online Graduate Application by the Priority Processing date enables the University to more quickly and efficiently link your application record with the supporting materials that you, your previous institutions, and your recommenders submit to us, reducing the possibilities of human or technical error.

Applicants need only complete the online portion of their Graduate Applications (i.e., the Online Graduate Application and the Application Supplemental Form / ASF) by this date for Priority Processing; transcripts, letters of recommendation, and other supporting materials will be accepted by the Graduate School until each program's official deadline.

Priority Processing is optional; applications received after this date will be entered into the University's record system normally.
