international applicants
Application deadlines for international applicants are the same as for Full Time Applicants. Applicants that need additional time to complete the application process should contact their admissions counselor to inquire about specific arrangements. The Fox School's Graduate Admissions Committee will not make any admission decision on an application until all elements for the Application Process listed above have been submitted.
As part of our admissions process, The Graduate Admissions Office of the Fox School of Business and Management will submit your academic credentials to our Graduate School for GPA evaluation only if your application form, official transcripts/yearly mark sheets, and official TOEFL scores, if necessary, are postmarked to this office by the deadlines.
Please note that a credential evaluation done internally can take approximately one month. If you will be using the credential evaluation service offered by Temple University, please allow for additional processing time.
Applications or official transcripts/yearly mark sheets and TOEFL scores which are postmarked after the deadlines will not be considered for admission unless the applicant provides an official, independent course by course academic evaluation from one of the services listed below and copies of the transcripts/mark sheets. Applicants who cannot meet this deadline can defer their application to a subsequent semester.
