The MPA admissions cycle is officially closed for fall 2013.

Thank you, applicants, for taking the time and effort to apply to our program. Once again, the admissions committee was impressed with the strength of the applicant pool this year!

Interested in applying for fall 2014?

Here are ways you can prepare for your application:

• Review our admissions website in late August. Updates on the application process will be posted before the application opens in early September 2013.
• Take courses this summer or fall if you have not completed our pre-enrollment requirements. Please note that we have added introduction to managerial accounting as a pre-enrollment requirement for fall 2014.
• Prepare for the GMAT and TOEFL (if applicable) early so that we receive your test scores before the application deadline.
• Stay tuned to this admissions blog. I will begin posting tips on applying, updates on the admissions process, and highlights of our program after the application opens…Don’t miss out!

Don’t forget! Today is the final application deadline for U.S. applicants for fall 2013. If you are interested in applying to the Texas MPA program and haven’t done so, you will have until 11:59 p.m. CST on Friday, March 1 to submit your application from the ApplyTexas system. If you save the application in Apply Texas but do not submit it by 11:59 p.m., you will not have the ability to submit it later. Additionally, be sure to complete your application by supplying all other required application materials as soon as possible because space in our incoming class is limited.

Please note that:

• It will take about 3 weeks for your official GMAT scores to be sent, received, and loaded to your UT application record. I recommend that you send me an email message with an unofficial report, in the meantime, if your official scores are not appearing on your record by Monday.
• Your references will receive an email notification with instructions for supplying the recommendation letter AFTER UT-Austin receives your application from Apply Texas, approximately 24-48 hours after submission. This is also when you will receive a notification and will have the ability to upload your supplemental documents.

If you have any questions or concerns about your application, please contact me. Thank you for considering the Texas MPA program!
