Application Forms
Application forms for admission to the Graduate School may be obtained from the Admissions Office at all Troy University locations. The application should be completed at least one month before the first day of the semester or term of intended attendance.

Applications must include
1. a completed application form,
2. official transcripts from all universities attended, and
3. other documentation supporting the application.

All official transcripts (raised seal with Registrar's signature, security paper, and without "Issued to Student" stamped on it) from all universities attended noting that credit was accepted toward the completion of the bachelor’s degree are required for applicants holding a bachelor's degree. All official transcripts showing the completion of the bachelor’s, masters or higher degree are required for applicants holding a master's or higher degree. These transcripts must be on file in the Admissions Office of the Troy University campus to which the student is applying. The Admissions office will assist students in completing transcript requests. Once the Application for Admission is on file, all transcripts submitted become the property of Troy University and will not be returned.

Other Document Requirements The official Troy University Letter of Recommendation that addresses the individual’s potential for success in the selected graduate program as well as his/her written and oral communication skills must be completed and submitted electronically to the location that the Application for Admissions was submitted. The official letter of recommendation form may be found at https://it.troy.edu/grad/index.htm.

Students who previously took a nationally standardized aptitude examination, such as the GRE, MAT, or GMAT, shall submit official test score(s) with the Application for Admission. No time limit is established on test scores for admission to Graduate School. (However, most scores are available for only five years.)

1. College of Education students seeking advanced teacher certification (Class A) must furnish a copy of a valid teaching certificate (not Optional or Provisional certificates). Alternative Fifth-year students seeking initial certification are not required to present a teaching certificate. See the College of Education section for additional information.

2. Students who have completed an Air Force intermediate or senior level Professional Military Education (PME) course must submit an official transcript from the Registrar, Air University. Students who have completed U.S. Army Command and General Staff College must submit an official transcript. Students who completed any other service sponsored PME School must submit a course completion certificate.

3. Health Certificate. (Troy Campus requirement) Students who enroll or take courses on the Troy campus must submit a medical record to the Admissions Office.

Submission of the completed application, application fee, official test scores, letter of recommendation, and official transcripts normally completes an application for admission. When the application for admission has been processed, the appropriate Graduate Admissions personnel will inform applicants of the action taken. Admission to the Graduate School does not imply official admission to a specific graduate program. For admission to a particular program of study, students must refer to program admissions guidelines for additional specifications.
