How to Apply

Application Requirements

Note: If you are not a U.S. citizen or resident immigrant, please follow the International Student process below.

1. UW Graduate School Application and $75 fee.  A credit card is required to pay the application fee.
    
2. Master of Accounting Supplimental Application Materials are available online as part of the UW Graduate School application system. If you are unable to submit your application online, please contact us at uwtmacc@uw.edu.

   b.  Reference List Form
   b.  MAcc Scholarship Application (optional)

3.  Transcripts

Official transcipts showing all undergraduate and post-baccalaureate coursework.  A bachelor's degree from an accredited institution (regardless of field or major) is required prior to enrolling in the program. As such, applicants are not required to have earned their baccalaureate degree when applying but must have earned their degree prior to enrolling in the program.

• If you are admitted, an official transcript from your degree granting institution will be required by the Graduate School in Seattle.  Official transcripts must be sealed in an envelope with the school registrar's signature across the seal. DO NOT OPEN THESE ENVELOPES. Opening the envelopes will cause the transcripts to be considered unofficial, and new copies will be required.
• If you attended the University of Washington, you do not need to submit an official transcript.

4.  GMAT Exam

All applicants to MAcc must submit official Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) scores. Test scores are valid for 5 years from the test date; scores more than 5 years old are not accepted. If you take the GMAT multiple times we will consider your highest score for admission purposes.
