We are excited that you are interested in continuing your educational journey with us! You are joining a great family and can expect to receive a warm welcome should you be accepted for admission to one of our many graduate programs.
It only takes a few steps to get you in line for possible enrollment at William Carey University. We hope you will take the time to submit an application for admission, and we can't wait to see you here!
Start the Process & Gather Information
In order to be considered for graduate admission, all applicants must:
- Review the requirements specific to your program or degree of interest in the Graduate Catalog
- Complete the Application
- Submit a complete and official academic transcript from each college previously attended. An official transcript is defined as one sent directly from one institution to another. It bears the institution's seal, the signature of the registrar, and the date of issuance. Digital transcripts are the preferred method, though we accepted mailed transcripts as well. We do not accept hand-delivered transcripts. If an email address is required to submit a request from the institution you attended, please use the following: graduateadmissions@wmcarey.edu.
Submit Your Application
WCU is transitioning to a new application software system for the Spring 2026 academic term and beyond. There may be slight delays in processing. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this transition.
Once your application has been reviewed, we will let you know if you need to submit additional information.
Submit Necessary Documentation
Once your application is submitted you will receive an email notification informing you of the documents and any other additional information you need to have sent to William Carey.
Be on the lookout for any email messages from admissions@wmcarey.edu .
