An OFFICIAL transcript showing your FINAL SPRING GRADES must be submitted BY MAY 15th for your application to be considered by our Admissions Committee.

OFFICIAL transcripts must be sent directly to “UNCG Undergraduate Admissions”, electronically, through Parchment or the National Student Clearinghouse, or via Mail (visit your college’s website to submit the request).

• Go to your former school’s website, and search “transcript” or “request transcript”.
• Follow the instructions to send an Electronic Transcript; there are usually links to the transcript clearinghouse used by your school (this may be The National Student Clearinghouse, Parchment, or something else).
• Follow the instructions to type in/select the school where the transcript is coming “from”, and input all of your personal information.
• Select “University or College” in the drop-down menu for the “Recipient” (or, when asked, “where does the transcript need to be sent?”).

This advising/registration section is specifically for students applying for fall admission to CSD’s Undergraduate or Prerequisite Program.

Advising:

• Reach out to your Advisor for advising and your Advising Code/Pin well ahead of your registration window (find this in UNCGenie).
• New, Transfer, or 2nd Degree/Prereq students admitted to the CSD Program through the Secondary Application process will be advised by HHS Advising for fall advising. You’ll be assigned a CSD advisor mid August.

Registration:

Summer Registration (opens February 1st for continuing UNCG students ). All students may take CSD 334 Intro to Audiology in the Summer.

Fall Registration (“JR” year on the Plan of Study for the SLP or Audiology Track):

Seats in CSD’s required 300+ level courses are reserved for students admitted through CSD’s Secondary Application Process. Keep this in mind if you experience delays that affect registration (i.e.: registration errors, etc.); if you are admitted to the program starting this fall, a seat is reserved for you in all required CSD courses.

• Applicants with a Cumulative GPA ≥2.8 will be approved to register during their registration window (and before official admission to the CSD Program).
• Applicants with a Cumulative GPA between 2.5 and 2.69 should register for an alternate fall schedule while seats are still widely available in other courses. We encourage this so that you will have a seat in courses you need in the event that you are not admitted to the CSD program this fall.
• Cumulative GPA. This may not be the GPA showing in UNCGenie; if you are unsure, your advisor can help you calculate your Cumulative GPA for all colleges attended.

Early registration does NOT waive the application/admission requirements. Applicants must complete all application requirements and be admitted to the CSD Program to remain enrolled in 300+ level CSD courses.

After May 15th: ALL Applicants will get an email indicating their application status after the CSD Admission Committee meets and reviews all completed applications.

All admitted students will receive fall registration information after submitting their Intent to Enroll in the CSD Program; use this information to register or to confirm that your schedule is correct.

• 55 credit hours must be completed by May 15th to be eligible for admission to the CSD Program.

• You will be required to send an OFFICIAL transcript to UNCG after your final summer grades have posted to your transcript.

EMAIL ammeyers2@uncg.edu and csd@uncg.edu once you have submitted your summer grades so we can verify receipt of your final transcript.
