Application Instructions
The Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences application procedure is a self-managed process
with you, the applicant, gathering all supporting materials and submitting them in the same
envelope with the application. Your application, typed personal statement, resume, transcript(s)
and letters of recommendation should be submitted in a single envelope. This will allow us to
process your application and to make decisions in a more timely fashion.
An application will not be reviewed if all required documents are not included. If test
scores are required, they should be sent by the Educational Testing Service directly to the Mandel
School (school code: 9511105).
NOTE: An application that requires test scores will not be submitted for review until the
test scores are received.
Transcripts
Send the registrar of each institution you attended a transcript request. Instruct each
registrar to enclose your transcript in an envelope, seal the envelope, sign across the seal, and
mail to you. DO NOT BREAK THE SEAL. If we receive a transcript that has been opened, the contents
will be disqualified. (International Students refer to
International Student Section).
Recommendations
Three letters of recommendation are required for each applicant. Request that each person
enclose the completed recommendation form in a regular business envelope, seal it, sign across the
seal, and mail to you. DO NOT BREAK THE SEAL. If we receive a recommendation that has been opened,
the contents will be disqualified. Click here to download the
Recommendation
Form. If you do not have the Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer, you can
download it for Free following these instructions.
After you have received all transcripts and letters of recommendation, place the unopened
envelopes in a large envelope with your completed application and typed personal statement.
PLEASE NOTE THAT MATERIAL SUBMITTED FOR APPLICATION CANNOT BE RETURNED TO THE APPLICANT.
Financial Aid
If you are seeking financial assistance, we strongly recommend that you file your
financial aid
application form as quickly as possible.

Deadline for completed applications is May 30 for full time and
part-time applicants. Application deadline for Intensive Weekend applicants is June 15. Any
changes in the admissions deadline will be posted on the Mandel School website,
