Along with their online application form, all applicants must submit the following as part of the online application:
Official transcripts from all colleges and universities attended, verifying proof of a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited institution (or international equivalent).
A current resume or CV.
A short personal statement detailing the ways in which the applicant believes the program will help them meet their professional goals.
An academic writing sample (review the writing sample guidelines tab on this page).
Contact information for at least two people who can act as references for the applicant, including at least one direct supervisor.

Letters of Recommendation–Most programs will require you to submit two letters of recommendation as part of the online application. These should be solicited through your online application. In the event that a program requires more than two letters, the program page will list how many additional letters of recommendation you will need, along with additional guidelines for selecting a recommender. You can submit your application before the letters are received.

Transcripts–Upload copies of transcripts showing college coursework and degrees completed to date. Unofficial copies are acceptable. Official transcripts are required only when you accept an offer of admission. If you are submitting an electronic transcript, please email it directly to gehdadmission@virginia.edu. A transcript must be provided for each school listed on your application. Transcripts that are not stated in English must be accompanied by a translation into English. Your application will be considered incomplete until all transcripts are received.
