Applying to the CSE Graduate Programs

The application procedure is broken into two steps: applying to the university, and online submission of documents to the department. Admission to the University is coordinated through the Texas A&M Office of Admissions. General questions about admissions should be directed to that office. Information about the on-line graduate application process can be found on the Graduate Admissions Information webpage. Applications are submitted through the ApplyTexas common application system. Documents such as transcripts and GRE scores are sent to Admissions following the procedures outlined on their Web site.

Once you have submitted your application via the ApplyTexas system, Admissions will load it into their system and email you. This process may take several weeks, particularly in late December and early January. Admissions will then transmit the application to our department.

When we have received your application, we will email you a message explaining how to upload your reference letters and statement of purpose into our CSE On-Line Application System. We do not accept paper documents. All materials must be submitted electronically. You will also have the opportunity to update your personal information and submit unofficial transcripts and GRE scores.

Specific questions about graduate admissions for the Department of Computer Science and Engineering should be directed to grad-admissions@cse.tamu.edu. (Do not send admissions questions to grad-advisor@cse.tamu.edu).
