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.

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.
