Transcript:
Have one official transcript from each institution at which you have attempted any undergraduate or graduate work sent directly to the Graduate School from the issuing institutions so that they arrive at the Graduate School no later than January 15. Note that in order for your transcripts to arrive by the deadline they typically must be ordered no later than 3 weeks before the deadline. Transcripts should be sent to:
Graduate School
106 Hargis Hall
Auburn University, AL 36849-5122
Electronic Transcripts: Auburn's Graduate School does accept electronic transcripts sent from domestic institutions. If you choose this route, make sure your institution sends your electronic transcript to "graduatetranscripts@auburn.edu". Some institutions will by default send the electronic transcript to Auburn's UNDERGRADUATE division, which will result in the transcript NOT being received by the Graduate School. That is why it is important for you to tell the issuing institution to send the electronic transcript to "graduatetranscripts@auburn.edu".
Curriculum Vitae:
C.V./Resume: you will be required to upload via the online application your C.V. or Resume.
Personal Statement:
Statement of Intent: You will be required to upload a Statement of Intent prepared according to the following guidelines:
Applicants to the ABA Master’s program: describe experiences that stimulated your interest in applied behavior analysis in developmental disabilities, including experience you have had as a student, volunteer, or employee working with individuals with developmental disabilities. What are your reasons for wanting to complete this particular Master's concentration? There is no length limit but most applicants submit a 2 to 5 page (double spaced) statement.
Recommendation Letter:
Information about your three required Letters of Recommendation: you will enter info about your letter writers on the online application and they will be sent e-mail prompts with directions for uploading their letters to that system. Check with your writers before starting the online application to verify whether each one agrees to submit the letter online via that system. Most will choose to do so, but if a writer will instead be mailing a paper letter to the Psychology Department, you will still need to list him/her on the online application but you will need to indicate that the letter will not be submitted via that system.
List of Psychology Courses Taken:
List of Psychology Courses Taken: you will be required to upload via the online application a document on which you list all psychology courses you have taken or will take by the end of Spring 2018 semester. List them in the chronological order in which you took them. For each course, give the following information: course number, course title, name of institution at which you took the course, semester and year you took or are taking the course (e.g., “Fall 2014”), number of credit hours for the course, and your grade in the course ("NA" if no grade has been assigned yet). List undergraduate courses first, then graduate courses. The directions published on the online application may not have been updated to reflect that we are asking for this list to cover courses you will have taken through Spring 2018, but please make sure your list is as up-to-date as possible.
