Application Process

Application Process

Admission requires applicants to apply first to the Toulouse Graduate School and then to the master's program in Curriculum and Instruction. Applications which meet initial university admission standards are forwarded to the Curriculum and Instruction program for consideration by faculty. Decisions regarding admission are based on a holistic review of the information from all sources. Accepted students will receive letters of notification of acceptance into the program. They may then confer with their advisor to submit a degree plan, enroll in classes, order course books, and log in to UNT’s learning management system Canvas for class details.
