Admitted Student Questions

You can view your admission letter and accept or decline your admission offer on your application status page

This information is included in your admission letter; log back in to your application status page to re-review your letter.

Please visit our Quick Guide for a complete set of information and instructions to get you started, including claiming your Net ID, registering for classes, getting your I-Card, and setting up your email.

To defer your admission you will need to speak with your program of study office. If they approve, you can defer for up to one calendar year.

You should contact your department and tell them of your decision. You should also log back in to your application status page to decline your admission offer. This is all that is needed to cancel your admission. If you have registered already for your admission term, you must also cancel your registration via Student Self-Service or by submitting a completed Cancellation Form to your program office.

Your admission was conditional based on you providing all final, official credentials from your previous institutions during your first term of enrollment. You can access your application status page to view the list of pending credentials. You can also view our Final Credential Requirements page for additional information on this requirement and how to submit your credentials. You must send these credentials to the Graduate College to avoid registration issues.

Please contact your graduate program to see if they have received these credentials and to have them forward the credentials to our office to remove your hold.

You need to contact your graduate program to request that they approve a hold extension for you. You will need to document why you are unable to obtain these credentials and when you expect to provide them to our office. If your department approves, they must submit a letter requesting an extension for fulfilling this condition of your admission. Our Assistant Dean will review these requests on a case-by-case basis.
