- Completed graduate application with essay and $30 fee
- Submitted GRE, GMAT or MAT scores (Please check with your major Department on which standardized test, if any, is required)

Conditional Admission
An applicant who does not qualify for full admission may be granted conditional admission. Conditional admission will not be granted to an applicant whose GPA is less than a 2.5 on the last 60 hours of completed coursework.
GRE, GMAT or MAT scores must be submitted at the time of application if the GPA is below 3.0. (Please check with your major Department on which standardized test, if any, is required)
When a student entering on conditional admission has satisfied all requirements, they may be granted full admission after being recommended by the academic department.
Applicants who for reasons beyond their control cannot provide official documents required for admission to the College of Graduate Studies by the time of initial enrollment, may be admitted for one semester pending receipt of the required documents.
An applicant who is admitted to the College of Graduate Studies will also need to check with their department to make sure of any other program admission requirements.

After looking into the outstanding Mathematics Department here at Tarleton State University, I felt I might have found my place.
We are committed to the philosophy that meticulous recognition of material alone is not enough to be successful in today’s professional environment.
Faculty, staff, and fellow students go out of their way to create a learning environment full of opportunities and engagement for a total college experience; I owe my success to this difference.
Small class sizes allow us to better meet the individual needs of our graduate students and help them to grow in knowledge and ability into functioning mathematicians.
The Tarleton counseling faculty members provide the appropriate balance of challenge and support in order to help students accomplish their academic goals.
The education and training I am receiving in my graduate program has helped me turn my passion into a fulfilling career.
All my professors have been easily approachable and always willing and able to explain a concept that I am having difficulty with, while at the same encouraging independent learning.
I cherish the education I have earned at Tarleton and the invaluable professional experience I have received as a graduate assistant for the Department of English and Languages.
Tarleton blends high technology delivery with professor expertise; integrated, field-based learning opportunities; and personal access to faculty and staff via technology or face-to-face.
Something that made a huge difference in my own personal development that we offer in our program is a great deal of personal attention and one-on-one interaction with our graduate students. We are abnormally approachable and accessible to our students.
It was so much fun, I jumped at the chance to return to Tarleton in 2008 when they began offering graduate level biology classes by Interactive Television from the Hickman Building at the Southwest Fort Worth Campus.
