Documents and Transcripts
Please note that instructions on this page for admissions are applicable to students applying to fully online programs only.
Freshmen and transfer students applying to on-campus programs should visit the Office of Admissions and Recruitment website for more information. If you are a traditional face-to-face student and send your transcripts to us, it will delay your transcript processing time.
Transcripts
All official transcripts from all institutions attended must be emailed directly from the previous institutions to UTEP at the same time as you fill in your application form. Please be sure to provide your previous academic institutions with the appropriate address as indicated below.
Undergraduate students
As part of the admissions process, all your official transcripts must be submitted for transcript evaluation by the Office of Admissions; 100% online undergraduate applicants must have transcripts sent electronically to onlinedocs@utep.edu OR by mail to
UTEP Connect
Kelly Hall, Suite 115
500 W. Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é Avenue

Note: If you are currently taking courses at another institution, be sure to request your transcript after grades have been posted to avoid them having to send your transcripts twice. Also, please note that Admissions will not evaluate your transcript until after an admissions decision has been made.
