      Graduate Assistantship

    • Degree Certificate
      • Note: If you are yet to complete your degree (or completed it recently) and do not have your degree certificate, you can be admitted tentatively. Please inform the Graduate School accordingly by sending an email to wsugradschool@wichita.edu.
  • If you have not already submitted all the documents required for your admission (including official English proficiency scores meeting the minimum requirements, financial documents (e.g. bank statements/loan documents), and signed ), please do so as soon as possible. WSU cannot finalize your admission without these documents. Please note that our Graduate School issues I-20 forms as soon as possible. However, it may take 1-3 weeks for final review and issuance of your I-20 after all your documents are uploaded through the admission application portal (not through email) and receipt of final admission confirmation through the Graduate School. You can review the list of missing documents through your portal. Please wait for I-20 forms to be issued since requesting them to be expedited will not help it.
