Additional Steps to Apply
1. Application
It is very important that you APPLY first in order to create a file for your application materials. Please follow the “Apply” link and apply for the Graduate Counseling program which you are interested in pursuing.
2. Official Transcripts
IWU requires the official transcript from the institution where you earned your baccalaureate degree, any institution where you have earned graduate credit and any transcript that contains prerequisite credit. Note: A transcript is only considered official if IWU receives it in a sealed envelope directly from the school you attended. You may order an official E-Transcript if your institution provides that option.
