Master's Application Process

Below you will find the application process for a Master's in Learning and Development.

The application process consists of two parts: A) Applying to the UWM Graduate School and B) Applying to the Department of Educational Psychology.

A. To the UWM Graduate School:
1) Applicants are encouraged to complete the Graduate School Application Form online at www.gradschool.uwm.edu. Click on prospective students and follow the instructions. Or, paper applications may be obtained from the Graduate School, Mitchell Hall 261, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, P.O. Box 340, Milwaukee, WI 53201 Phone: 414-229-4982.

* Note: All application materials must be submitted to the UWM Graduate School. Materials will be considered on a rolling basis as they are received from the graduate school. It takes at least 8-10 weeks from the time the graduate school receives your application until the Learning and Development program can make its admissions decisions.

2) Two copies of official transcripts of all undergraduate and graduate credits (if any) the applicant has accumulated to date at other institutions of higher learning must be submitted to the Graduate School. It is the applicant's responsibility to arrange for this to be done.

Admission applications cannot be processed until all official transcripts have been received by the Graduate School.

3) Finally, the Graduate School application also requires a "Statement of Reasons for Graduate Study."
