Transcripts:

• The Graduate School requires that all applicants have either a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution in the United States or proof of equivalent training at a foreign institution of higher learning. Applicants are expected to have a record of undergraduate study and experience that is predictive of success in graduate study. A minimum grade point average or standardized test score is not specified. Records for current and former Baylor University students are already on file in the Academic Records Office, so if you are a current or former Baylor student, the Graduate School will request your Baylor transcript and copies of any other transcripts that you have previously submitted to Academic Records at Baylor University from 1988 to present. Non-Baylor transcripts submitted before 1988 will need to be requested from the university at which you took classes and mailed directly to Baylor Graduate Admissions.

Proof of Degree:

• The Graduate School must receive proof of an earned degree. If the transcript from the school at which the applicant earned a bachelor’s degree, or bachelor’s-equivalent, does not clearly state proof of degree completion, including the date on which that degree was conferred, the applicant must request that additional documentation, such as an official diploma certificate showing proof of degree, be mailed to the Graduate School. Baylor University students applying to a joint bachelor’s/master’s degree program must provide proof of completion of their junior year (90 semester hours). International applicants should be particularly mindful of this requirement since transcripts from non-U.S. institutions frequently lack proof of conferred degree information. Transcripts in languages other than English must be translated by an official translating agency and in some cases evaluated by (World Education Services (WES)
