Applications for Fall 2026 close for international students on
May 1
. After May 1, you are encouraged to apply for Spring 2027.
Applying to the Graduate School is
free
(no application fees*) and
fast
(no official transcripts, or test scores to start). Apply today, and we'll help you
through the rest of the process.
Create and Activate Your Account
For new users, create your account by providing your first name, last name, date of
birth, and email address. For returning users, who provided an application after September
8, 2021, login with your previous account credentials. Please contact

or the type of degree or credential you are seeking.
*International applicants are required to pay a $10 processing fee per application.

Admissions Questions
May I mail my required documents, rather than uploading them?
No.
All materials required for the application process must be uploaded to your Michigan
Tech admissions portal. Hardcopies of official transcripts will be reviewed and scanned,
but will not be physically retained. Any other mailed documents will not be reviewed
and will be shredded / destroyed.
It is highly recommended that international students bring their official transcripts
and proof of degree(s) with them to campus. These official documents are required
to complete enrollment after being admitted.
How do I apply for funding?
All applications for admission are considered for funded
graduate assistantships
when available, but the availability of this funding varies by program. There is
no need to take any additional action to be considered for this funding other than
to submit your application to the program.
How do I know if my application is under review? What is my application status?
The status of your application can be viewed in your Michigan Tech admission portal.
Emails will be sent to you as a reminder to access your admission portal for important
updates.
When will I receive my admissions decision?
All application decisions are made by the program of study. The time frame for a decision
varies among programs, as some programs make decisions by committee review.
If you have further questions about a program's timeline for application decisions,
you can contact your
Graduate Program Director
.
