Electronic transcripts should be sent to grad.transcripts@ua.edu. Please see your letter of admission for details.
Personal Statement:
The statement of purpose is a required essay which is usually 1-2 pages in length. It serves as your opportunity to describe your background, your reasons for wanting to attend a certain program, and what your goals post-graduation may be. If you have questions regarding format, please contact the graduate program director of your intended program.

Applicants should submit at least three (3) letters of recommendation as part of their graduate application. At least one letter should be from a professor in your undergraduate major or your proposed field of graduate study.
