Applications for Fall 2023 are due December 1, 2022 for priority admission review, if you apply after this date your application will be reviewed if we have additional space in the program. After February 1, admission offers will vary depending on program space available.

Our program is designed for students to begin in Fall, although Spring admission is granted on a case by case basis; there is not a guarantee that there will be openings for Spring. We do not accept students starting in the Summer.

**We are no longer accepting applications for Spring 2023***

Our application process has two steps. After gathering all materials, applicants should do the following:

• Step 1: Complete the Department of Chemistry Application.*
  *Please note that there is no fee to complete the departmental application.
  • Ensure all application materials, including letters of recommendation, are received. You may email chemistry@unt.edu to request an update on the status of your application.
  • Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.

A complete application consists of:

• Transcripts from all universities you have attended. Unofficial transcripts may be uploaded for temporary review. If you have multiple transcripts, please merge the files or scan all pages into one big file in order to upload the transcripts one time.
  • Domestic students must submit official transcripts to the Toulouse Graduate School. The easiest way to get this done is to have the registrar's office at your school send official electronic transcripts to GradAdmission@unt.edu
  • International students do not need to submit official transcripts to the Toulouse Graduate School. All applications from international students can be processed with copies of transcripts. International students must submit copies of all transcripts *and* all diplomas along with an official English translation.
