• Two letters of recommendation
  Recommendations must be from individuals who are qualified to assess the applicant’s readiness for graduate studies. The writer must indicate he/she is aware the applicant is applying for business graduate studies and must elaborate on why he/she feels the applicant would make an ideal candidate for business graduate studies. The body of each letter must be at least 200 words. We prefer that at least one of the letters be from a former professor; the other letter may be from a current or most recent supervisor. However, if an applicant has been out of school for some time and is unable to obtain a letter from a former professor, then both recommendation letters from recent supervisors will be appropriate.
  
  
• Current resume
  Resume must outline applicant’s education, work experience, extra-curricular activities, community involvement, honors and achivements, etc.

Submission of the application alone does not meet the deadline requirement. Application files will not be evaluated for admission until all of the required documentation has been submitted.

Application material must be received and processed by the Office of Graduate Studies and Research before files can be forwarded to the A.R. Sanchez, Jr. School of Business’s Graduate Admissions Committee for review. Applicants are notified of admission decision via letter from the Office of Graduate Studies and Research.

Admission to a degree program is valid for the applicant’s intended semester of enrollment. If the applicant is not able to enroll for the given semester, the applicant may request a deferment for the subsequent semester.

Students who are officially admitted to the University may register for courses. A registration period is held for each academic semester and for each summer session. Registration dates are posted on the University’s Academic Calendar or on the SSB Home Page

Class schedules may be viewed for terms in active registration periods trough the following link: TAMIU Class Schedules
This link will also provide pertinent information on the semester academic calendar, deadlines for payment, methods of payment, etc.

It is highly recommended first-time students visit with the Graduate Advisor to review specific requirements on the student’s particular degree plan (such as foundation courses) and clarification on any admission conditions that were imposed on the student. Graduate Advisor can check on any registration holds and direct the student to appropriate office for waiver/clearance of those holds. Once holds have been waived or cleared, the Graduate Advisor will assist the student with the selection of classes for the semester.
