Application Requirements
A completed application includes:

- Payment of the $50 application fee online.
- Two copies of official academic transcripts, in sealed envelopes, from each post secondary institution attended regardless of where your final degree(s) were received. Transcripts are required from each institution you attended, regardless of the length of time you attended, your status, or whether the grades are listed on another institution's transcript. This would include community colleges, study abroad programs and AP credit. If you received college level credit, a transcript should be submitted for review.
- The goals statement is your means of presenting yourself to the Graduate Admissions Committee. You should submit a short typed statement of personal and professional goals as they relate to the certificate or degree program you are seeking. Most applicants write approximately two typed pages, summarizing their work experience, the reasons they have chosen the program, why they want to attend Georgia State, and how the degree fits in with their career goals.
- Official scores on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). More information at www.gre.org
- International applicants may also be required to submit official scores on the TOEFL and Georgia State University's International Applicant Immigration Form.
