Below you will find information about UWTC's Admission Requirements for the daytime MSTC program. If you have any questions regarding these materials or information please contact the academic counselor. There is a dual admission process for all graduate programs at the UW. MSTC applicants are required to apply to both the TC department and the UW Graduate School. Application materials are available on the TC Application page. Note: The TC Department will keep your application on file for one year after the application deadline. If you are not accepted, or decline admission, your application materials will be shredded.
TC accepts applications for Autumn and Winter quarters Note: If you have previously taken any classes as a GNM or UCD Certificate student, please notify the Academic Advisor that you have already submitted some or all of the application materials. The deadlines for future quarters are:
Prerequisites
Statement of Qualifications, Goals, and Career Objectives The statement of qualifications, goals, and objectives is an important part of the application portfolio. The admission committee considers content and format when evaluating the statement; it should be no longer than two pages. Your statement should address:
Three (3) letters of recommendation are required. These letters should be from people who can judge your capacity to undertake graduate studies, including present or former professors, work supervisors, or clients (in the case of consulting assignments). An evaluation form must accompany each recommendation. References can either be sent to the department by the recommender, or gathered and sent with your application packet as long as they remain sealed in their original envelope. A current resume is required. No specific professional background is required to apply, but relevant professional experience is taken into account in the admission's decision. Financial Aid/General Information Questionnaire The Financial Aid/General Information Questionnaire is used to ensure we have all the details relevant to your application. Each applicant must submit official transcripts from each college level (4-year and 2-year) institution attended. To become a part of the application packet, the official transcripts must arrive sealed in their original envelope from the institution that issued them. Graduate Admissions requires that all applicants take the GRE General Test. The TC Department uses mainly the verbal score of the GRE in evaluating applicants. Since April 1999, the General Test is offered only on computer at locations around the world. These test scores are mailed to you and the designated institutions 10-15 days after the test date. In filling out the GRE application, use 4854 (University of Washington) under "Score Report Recipients" and 5199 (TC) for the department code. The University of Washington accepts scores sent directly from ETS in paper roster, disk, or tape format. Official score reports should be sent to UW Graduate Admissions. GRE scores must be no more than five years old. The following resources can give you more information about the GRE:
Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) Applicants whose native language is not English must obtain a satisfactory score on the TOEFL unless they have a university degree from an institution in an English-speaking country. This requirement also applies to immigrant and permanent resident applicants. Like the GRE, the TOEFL is given worldwide at set dates each year at most major universities and many U.S. Consulates and Embassies abroad. Official score reports from the TOEFL should be sent to the UW Graduate Admissions. The TC Department requires that TOEFL scores be no more than two years old. The following resources can give you more information about the TOEFL:
Applications from international students are accepted once a year, to start autumn quarter. To ensure consideration please submit your application by November 1st (note this is three months before the posted deadline).
Request an application packet be sent to you To request an application information packet be mailed to you, please contact the TC Department. All TC Applicants must also submit the following materials to the UW Graduate School:
Send or deliver these materials to: Office of Graduate Admissions If accepted, new students will receive notification from both the TC department and the UW Graduate School. Upon notification of acceptance to the TC Master's Program from the Graduate School, the applicant will be asked to pay a $100 deposit. This payment secures your spot at the UW and will be applied to your tuition. New TC students will be invited to an orientation meeting. Detailed information will be mailed to you about this and any other events hosted by the Department. New students generally have a set schedule in autumn quarter, which is outlined in their welcome letter. If new students have questions about this schedule, or would like to change the schedule, contact the Graduate Adviser.
