Step by Step

1. Submit an application to the graduate school. If you are currently a ULM student, you may apply online through Arrow.  If not, you should download the graduate application form, fill it in and mail it to the Graduate School. Application forms are available online at the following address:

    http://www.ulm.edu/gradschool/how_to_apply.html

2. Submit transcripts to the graduate school.  If you are still enrolled as an undergraduate, you should send your current transcripts, following up with official final transcripts when you graduate.   You will need official transcripts from each school you have attended.

3. Take the GRE -- the sooner the better, especially if you want an assistantship.

4. If you want to apply for an assistantship, fill out the application and send it to the English department.  The form is online:

5.  Also if you are applying for an assistantship, request recommendations from at least three people who know you and your work especially well.  These recommendations should be sent to the English department.   Recommendation forms are online:

6. If you want to apply for a Work study position, fill out the application and send it to the English department.  The form is online:

8.  If you are applying for a Work study postion, request recommendations from at least three people who know you and your work especially well.  Your references should send these recommendations to the English department.  The form for  Work study recommendations is available online:

http://www.ulm.edu/gradschool/Work_Study_Recommendation_Form.pdf

Note:  Although you will not receive both an assistantship and a work study position, many applicants submit both applications at the same time.

9.   After you are accepted but before you register for classes, you must have your vaccination records sent to the graduate school.
