In addition, many departments have established admission standards more stringent than the minimum requirements. Some departments recommend that applicants arrange a personal interview with the appropriate departmental graduate advisor. Final admission approval is granted by the dean of the Graduate College. The university reserves the right to deny admission to any prospective or former students who have criminal records including any conviction of a felony, offenses involving moral turpitude, or other offenses of serious nature. Application Deadlines Students who hold an acceptable four-year baccalaureate degree must submit an application to the Graduate College if they wish to pursue a master's degree at SWT, take certification course work, take background courses, or take courses for personal enrichment.
Some departments have different deadlines other than the ones indicated above.
You are encouraged to contact your proposed major department for specific deadline. Applications received after the published deadline dates will be processed on a time-available basis only. Many departments strictly enforce the published deadlines and will accept no applications after the above referenced dates.
