Fee International Graduate: $90 RL On your ApplyTexas application, you will be asked to list the names and email addresses of the three people you have chosen to recommend you for admission. Once you submit your application, an email will be sent to each recommender instructing them to visit a website and complete a questionnaire. The letters will automatically be routed to the department. Online submission of recommendations is strongly preferred, but we will accept paper recommendations if absolutely necessary. Transcript Transcripts (Please request your official transcripts, with the final grades from all of the colleges and universities you have attended, be sent directly to GIAC only after you have been admitted into the program) When uploading transcripts, note you will only be allowed to upload one PDF file per school. This means if you have a multiple page transcript for one school you will need to create one PDF file for that school. Gradesheets should not be uploaded in place of transcripts. Applications with gradesheets in place of transcripts will be considered incomplete. If you are uploading a foreign transcript, you must also include the translated version as part of the one PDF file for that school.
