Application Instructions

The admission application is fully online, culminating with a telephone admission interview. Generally speaking, most applicants begin the process by having an informal dialogue with a TIES Admissions Guide. Please call us at 800-457-5672. This ensures that the adult learner’s educational aspirations are in alignment with the program context and process. It is also an opportunity to review all the details of enrollment, tuition, course structure, and much more.

Letters of Recommendation

In addition to your transcripts, we will require two letters of recommendation. These letters attest to your ability to do the academic work, as well as participate in collaborative projects. The person you ask should be willing to write in a meaningful way. This requires more than a few sentences but not usually more than a few paragraphs.

We encourage you to have a current employer submit one of these letters. We cannot accept recommendations from close relatives. Please list the names of the two individuals from whom we should expect responses. Please make sure they include telephone contact information.

Submit recommendation letters via email to [email protected].
