General Graduate School application deadlines
Academic programs establish their own application deadlines, which may be different than the general Graduate School deadlines described below. In such cases, program deadlines supersede the more general university deadline. Some academic programs also admit applicants for specific terms only (e.g. fall term). Applicants should check the academic program for deadline and contact information.
| Semester | Domestic students | Canadian and international students |
|---|---|---|
| Fall (begins in August) | Apply by June 1 | Apply by May 1 |
| Winter (begins in January) | Apply by Oct. 1 | Apply by Sept. 1 |
| Spring/summer (spring begins in May; summer in June) | Apply by Feb. 1 | Apply by Jan. 1 |
International applicants should allocate time for visa processing.
