The Applicant Center gives you access to view your Application Status, Applicant Center Dashboard, Test Scores, and a summary of your Demographic Data.
Application Status
If your application status is complete, i.e. we have all of your transcripts and test scores, you will see that the application is complete and is in the review stage. Once the application has been reviewed, you will be notified of a decision.
If your application status is incomplete, you will see that we are waiting on additional documents to proceed with the admissions process. To review the outstanding items, click Show outstanding items for this application. The outstanding items with instructions will be listed below the status bar. The items listed are required to complete your application and receiving them enables us to move forward with the evaluation process.

Accept Admission
