Candidates who are admitted to the Graduate School-Newark are notified by the Office of Graduate and Undergraduate Admissions. The school may cancel a student's registration, however, if he or she fails to satisfy the conditions of admission.

The Office of Admissions issues official letters of admission to admitted applicants. We urge applicants to check the application portal for an update on the status of their applications. Program recommendations may be rejected or changed by the associate dean after review.

Admitted applicants are expected to register for the semester for which they were admitted. Those who fail to do so must notify the Office of Admissions, as they may be required to submit a second application and fee to be reconsidered for admission at a later date. In addition, they may have to provide a transcript(s) of any intervening academic work.

Admission to the Graduate School-Newark does not constitute admission to candidacy for an advanced degree. Students must submit an application for such candidacy to the dean of the Graduate School-Newark and follow the procedures set forth in the Degree Requirements chapter.
