Transcripts

If you attended ASU, you do not need to submit ASU transcripts. Otherwise, you must have one set of official transcripts from every college and university from which you earned a bachelor’s degree or higher sent to ASU Graduate College. ASU accepts official transcripts that are original academic credentials issued by the registrar of the institution attended, bearing the original raised or colored seal of the institution and the signature of your institution's registrar, academic official, or recognized international organization. We accept unofficial transcripts at the time of application. If admitted, official transcripts will be required.

You may either have the original institution send your transcripts, or you may wish to collect all of them and send them together. In either case, use the following mailing information:

GMAT or GRE scores (optional)

Test scores are not required for admission. Depending on your academic or professional background, you may prefer to submit a test score to demonstrate your potential for success in our graduate programs.

If you choose to submit a score, these must be sent directly to the school by the assessment organizations that administer the tests. The GMAT institutional code for the W. P. Carey School is 0GZ-1R-80. The ASU Institution code for GRE is 4007 and, if needed, the department code is 000.

Note: ASU does not accept the GRE^® General Test at-home exam.

The application process for international students is the same as for domestic students, with the exception of submitting proof of English proficiency (for students whose native language is not English). W. P. Carey graduate minimum score requirements may be higher than ASU requirements. Please note ASU does not accept TOEFL iBT® Home Edition (if taken prior to Jan. 21, 2026), TOEFL iBT® Paper Edition, or TOEFL Essentials Exams as proof of this requirement. After admission, you will also be required to obtain a U.S. visa, which includes submitting a graduate financial guarantee.

All international transcripts must be submitted in their original language accompanied by an official English translation. Translations must be literal, complete versions of the originals and must be translated by a university, government official or official translation service. You may not complete your own translation. Photocopies and notarized transcripts are not acceptable. Individuals who have completed a three-year undergraduate degree with no additional coursework may qualify, please submit your application and transcripts or contact [email protected] for further questions.

As a token of our appreciation, W. P. Carey will waive the application fee for all U.S. Military, Teach for America, Peace Corps or AmeriCorps members. Please email [email protected] prior to submitting your application to request a waiver.

To apply for federal financial aid, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The application is available December 1 for the following academic year. ASU's school code is 001081. Learn more about tuition and financial aid at ASU, including eligibility requirements and answers to frequently asked questions.

The FAFSA can be completed at any point in your current academic year, but we recommend these deadlines for completing your applications and receiving funds in a timely manner.

• July 15 Complete supporting documentation requested by Student Financial Assistance
• August 1 Accept your finance aid via My ASU

ASU's Veteran Benefits and Certifications does not determine eligibility but will assist you by administering veteran's educational benefits and certifying your enrollment.

ASU’s Pat Tillman Veterans Center is a resource for active-duty, veteran, and veteran-dependent students, providing support with education benefits, community-building events, and individualized guidance for academic and personal success.

W. P. Carey awards a limited number of scholarships based on academic performance, leadership activities, community involvement and future goals. These scholarships are extremely competitive. A short application is required for consideration and must be completed after admission has been awarded. Domestic and U.S. permanent residents must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

If your employer doesn’t already have a graduate academic partnership with W. P. Carey, you can be the one to help bring impactful benefits to your workplace — including personalized admission assistance, waived application fees, and expanded scholarship opportunities (ranging from $2,000 to $25,000). These benefits can be combined with existing employer-paid tuition assistance programs or supplement your education if no such benefits are currently offered.

>> To get the process started at your company, connect the school with a representative from your human resources or benefits team. We look forward to hearing from you!

You may seek full or partial funding from your employer to assist with the costs of pursuing your W. P. Carey graduate program. Check with your human resources department regarding tuition reimbursement policies. Employer-paid benefits may take one of two forms:

• Third-party sponsor billing — ASU will bill your employer directly
• Corporate reimbursement — student pays account upfront and is reimbursed by employer upon meeting their guidelines
