Step 2: Determine Your Level

The U.S. education system is comprised of 12 years of primary and secondary education followed by 4 years of post-secondary, or undergraduate study-toward a bachelor's degree-before a student becomes eligible for graduate level study in a master's, doctoral, or professional program.

Are you a beginning freshman?

If you have completed the entire (primary/secondary) university preparatory sequence in the country where you studied or are scheduled to complete this schooling and you have not attended a university or college or other postsecondary institution since graduation from high school (excluding summer attendance immediately following high school graduation).

Instead, please visit our returning student web page to update your records.

Students who have not been enrolled in classes for less than one academic semester should consult their academic advisor to return to the university instead of completing the returning student application.
