The application deadline for doctoral applicants is December 15.  The application deadline for masters students is January 15.  However, some engineering departments and programs have more flexible deadlines, so be sure to contact individual departments to find out their specific deadlines. 

The best course of action is always to contact individual engineering departments for specific requirements. As long as your official online application is submitted by the deadline, all accompanying materials (transcripts, test scores, statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, etc.) can follow.  No official admission decisions can be rendered until your application is complete.

The Rackham Graduate School online application is available from early August to January 15 for the following Fall term.  Application deadlines for Professional and Interdisciplinary programs can be found at the Interdisciplinary Programs and Departmental websites.  Additionally, some departments offer Winter admission. The Winter term at the University of Michigan begins early January and runs through mid- to late April.
