PS A 500-700 word, double-spaced typewritten document that describes your personal, academic, and professional reasons for pursuing a Master of Arts in International Studies, and for choosing USF’s program. The statement should relate your workplace experiences and international studies background (jobs, internships, community activities, etc.) to your educational and professional goals. GPA GPA: 3.0 CV Resume (internship or job related experience) RL Two letters of recommendation (at least one is an academic recommendation from a professor; preferably both letters are academic recommendations). Recommendation letters are submitted by individuals who can attest to the applicant's ability and competence to succeed in the studies, research, and writing required by this graduate program. Follow the instructions in the online application in order to provide your references' contact information. Transcript Upload a copy of your university-issued transcript from each university, college (university-level) and community college you have attended. Please make sure the institution name is on the document you upload. Transcripts from all attended schools and study abroad programs must be submitted since universities at which you earned your Bachelor's Degree often do not list transfer and study abroad courses with grades. If you have not yet graduated from your Bachelor's Degree institution, submit a copy of your current transcript, showing in progress courses. If admitted, official transcripts showing proof of graduation will be required. Applicants who attended undergraduate programs at USF should upload their unofficial transcripts for departmental review, but are not required to send official USF transcripts.
