Applying for Admission to the UT ECE Graduate Program

There are four steps necessary in order to apply for admission to Graduate School in the Electrical & Computer Engineering Graduate program at The University of Texas at Austin (UT ECE):

  1. Choose an academic track

    UT ECE offers 11 different Academic Tracks of study. It is very important that you select the academic track that best fits your choice of Graduate Major. Once you begin the application to Graduate School, you will NOT be able to change your Academic Track. It is very important that you research all the academic tracks in UT ECE to learn which track best fits your interests and goals, before you begin the application to Graduate School.

  2. Complete the Application for Graduate Admissions

    Please complete the instructions for Admissions to Graduate School in Engineering. The deadline to apply for Summer 2013, Fall 2013 and Spring 2014 is December 15, 2012. You must have your application completed and submitted by this deadline in order to be considered.

  3. Upload a copy of your transcipt(s)

    After you have completed and submitted your application to Graduate School and paid your application fee, upload a copy of your transcript(s). After you have submitted your application, you will receive an email that contains a link to the Status Check web site where you will be able to upload your transcript. Your uploaded transcript(s) are considered to be unofficial, but will be used to process your application for admission. DO NOT mail official transcripts or paper copies of your transcripts to the University of Texas. Sending paper copies of documents you have uploaded will significantly delay the processing of your application. See instructions for uploading the pdf of your transcript.

  4. Send GRE scores to The University of Texas at Austin from the Education Testing Service (ETS)

    Send an official set of your GRE scores to the University of Texas from the Education Testing Service (ETS). Only the general GRE exam is required. International students are also required to submit TOEFL. We suggest you sit no later than December 1, 2012 for the GRE and TOEFL exams in order to comply with our December 15 deadline. Our university and program testing codes for ETS exams are as follows:

    Institution code : 6882
    GRE : 1203
    TOEFL : 66

    REMINDER: DO NOT mail paper copies of your application documents (transcripts, recommendations, Statement of Purpose, and Resume) to the University of Texas. The application to UT ECE is entirely electronic and allows for online submission of all of your application materials. Paper documents will not be reviewed and will significantly delay the processing of your application to Graduate School.
