TRANSCRIPT REQUIREMENTS:
If you are a Texas State University-San Marcos degree recipient or are currently enrolled, you need to request transcripts from any colleges NOT listed on your Texas State transcript. The Graduate College will provide the Texas State transcripts.

If you are not a Texas State University-San Marcos degree recipient or are not currently enrolled, one official transcript from each college or university attended is required. These transcripts must be mailed directly from the university or college attended or submitted in a sealed university envelope with the university's registrar's signature on the back of the envelope.

REGULAR ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS:
You must have a 3.0 GPA on the last 60 undergraduate semester hours of letter-grade work earned before receipt of your Bachelor's (plus any previously completed graduate or professional work).

All applicants must hold a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited university.  Admission to all graduate business degree programs is competitive and designed to identify those applicants who have the ability, interest, and maturity to manage the rigors of the programs as well as potential for future professional growth.  The Admissions Committee will carefully consider all aspects of an applicant’s professional and academic background.  The Admissions Committee will be looking for applicants with strong academic performance throughout their undergraduate experience and competitive scores on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT).  Also very important to the Admissions Committee are qualitative elements such as letters of recommendation, quality of written essays, relevant work experience, extracurricular and community activities, honors and achievements, and other personal characteristics that will enhance diversity in academic programs.

All international applicants (non-U.S. citizens) must fulfill the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) requirement as identified in the “Admission Documents” section of the graduate catalog.  Fluency in reading, speaking, and writing English is expected of all accepted students.

In addition to submitting the Graduate College application, the Accounting & Information Technology program requires the completion of the Graduate School of Business Application Packet, which can be accessed online at http://www.business.txstate.edu/graduate/.  Please download and submit the completed materials to the address listed on the website.  If you are unable to download these materials, please contact the department at (512) 245-3591.
