Doctoral International Application Deadlines

Note: Some Fall 2020 deadlines have been extended. Please click here to view affected programs and deadlines.

Doctoral applicants should apply for admission through the UTSA Online Graduate Application. Because of the time needed to prepare doctoral summaries, applicants are encouraged to have their admission file completed as early as possible but no later than one month prior to the applicable application deadline. 

Doctoral application deadlines are specific to the college and program. Additionally, doctoral application term offerings vary by program. Most programs grant admission only for the Fall semester, with some offering Spring admission as well. Lastly, deadlines will also determine those who are considered for financial assistance (grants, scholarships, graduate assistant positions, etc.). Please find your college and program below to determine the terms the program accepts applications for and the appropriate deadline(s).

It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure completion and submission of the application, a nonrefundable application fee, and all required supporting documents are on file with the Graduate School by the appropriate application deadline. We also highly advise that applicants make their recommenders aware of these deadline dates to ensure all items are turned in on time.

To expedite admissions processing, applicants can use unofficial supporting documents to submit the application (i.e., unofficial transcripts and test scores). You can contact graduateadmissions@utsa.edu with questions and/or review our Frequently Asked Questions webpage.

 All applications are to be submitted by 5:00 PM Central Time Zone (U.S.). When the published deadline falls on a weekend, the application remains open until 5:00 PM Central Time Zone (U.S.) on the following open business day. Deadlines are subject to change.
