Two Applications

In order to be accepted into the UNT Master’s Program in Applied Anthropology, applicants must submit two separate applications. This page provides an overview; for more detail, see our step-by-step Application Checklist.

1. Application to the Toulouse School of Graduate Studies
Applicants must apply to and be accepted by UNT's Toulouse School of Graduate Studies. Applicants should send all required documentation directly to the Toulouse School of Graduate Studies.

Items include:

	Toulouse School of Graduate Studies application form
	Application fee
	Transcripts from all previous college work
	GRE scores

International Applicants
International applicants must go through the International Studies Office. Please review the International Studies Office website for more information about degree equivalencies, English requirements, and the application process.

2. Application to the Department of Anthropology
In addition, applicants must also apply to and be accepted by the Department of Anthropology. Applicants should send all required documentation directly to the Department of Anthropology.

Items include:

	Department of Anthropology application form
	Letters of recommendation
	Statement of purpose
	Writing sample
	Scholarship application (for Feb 15 deadline)

Please do not send transcripts to the Department of Anthropology.  This slows down the application process.  The Toulouse School of Graduate Studies will forward the transcripts to the department when they have been processed. 

The Department of Anthropology begins review of applications approximately one month after each application deadline.  This is because applicants must be accepted by the Toulouse School of Graduate Studies BEFORE their application can be reviewed by the Department of Anthropology.  The Toulouse School of Graduate Studies takes approximately 1 month to make decisions.

	Early Admission and Scholarship Deadline:  February 15
	To be considered for scholarships and/or early admission, all application materials must be submitted by this deadline.  If the entire application is not received by this deadline, your application will be considered with the late admission applicants.
	Late Admission:  May 1
	We strongly encourage you to apply by the early deadline.  Although admission to our program is still possible, the majority of our new students will be accepted during early admission.

The applicant must hold the bachelor's degree from an accredited U.S. institution or equivalent training at a foreign university.

Applicants must have adequate subject preparation in anthropology. If an applicant has fewer than 12 hours of anthropology, s/he must take a prerequisite leveling course the summer before the first year of study, ANTH 5200. If you need this prerequisite, you should to apply for the SUMMER term rather than Fall. This is particularly important for your Toulouse School of Graduate Studies application. Please contact the Director of Graduate Programs, Lisa Henry, for more information, at LHenry@unt.edu.
