School of Education

It’s time: Build a strong foundation for your own success and for those you will lead. It all begins with your application for admission. Each application for our graduate programs follows a three-step process.

1. Prepare your application by reviewing all the required materials for your individual program. We recommend that you begin preparing your application several months in advance of submitting your application. This will give you time to prepare your supporting materials thoughtfully and thoroughly.
2. Complete your application online. You may start working on your online application, save it, and return to it later. After you submit the online application, no further changes are possible by you (but we can change something for you, such as your desired program or desired admit term, if you send a request by email to educate@indiana.edu). Note that faculty will not review your application until it is complete.
3. Look for an email confirmation. You’ll be notified by us if your application is incomplete, and you’ll also receive an email notification when your application is complete.

Before you begin the application process, review the admissions criteria and feel free to contact us at educate@indiana.edu if you have any questions.
