Admission Requirements

Complete your application through your Charger account and pay the nonrefundable $60 application fee. Please note: You can apply to only one graduate program at a time.

To qualify for unconditional admission to the UAH Graduate School, you must hold a bachelor's degree, or equivalent, from an approved institution and have a minimum 3.0 GPA on your undergraduate record. Please note, individual academic programs may have higher GPA requirements for unconditional admission. 

Send your official transcripts to UAH Graduate Admissions through an electronic delivery service. If your school does not have access to such services, then please have your school representatives send hard copies of your transcripts through the mail. Transcripts from UAH do not need to be submitted.

  • Option 1: We accept official transcripts through electronic delivery services such as Parchment and Student Clearinghouse.
  • Option 2: Request your school to send official hard-copy transcripts to:

    UAH Graduate Admissions
    301 Sparkman Drive
    SSB, Suite 222
    Huntsville, AL 35899

If your program needs a test score for admission, have the testing agency send your official scores to UAH Graduate Admissions. Check our Test Score Requirements to see if your program needs one. Please note that there is a recommended range for test scores, but landing within the range does not guarantee admission.

Depending on your program, you may be required to submit additional items, such as a resume/CV, letters of recommendation, personal statement, etc. Be sure to upload these documents in the “Checklist Items” section of your Charger Status account. Unsure about what you need? Find your program page for more information.
