You will receive an email from your advisor this summer with information on how and for what courses to register. If you haven’t received an email from your advisor by the end of July, please email gcswinfo@uh.edu. You may receive general communications prior to July from the university encouraging you to enroll; however, please wait for your advisor’s instructions before enrolling. If you have an enrollment hold, please follow the instructions provided to remove the hold(s) before you can register for classes.

Please contact the UH Graduate School directly to inquire about the status of your transcript. The GCSW Staff cannot see that your transcript has been received until the UH Graduate School has uploaded it to your application. They will send a Degree Verified Email Notification once they have processed your official transcript and verified you have a bachelor's degree.

Enrollment model changes are not guaranteed and are approved based on space availability. Admitted students can fill out the Admitted Student Enrollment Model Change Request Form to request an enrollment model change and a GCSW staff member will be in touch with you. Once you begin taking classes in the program, if you need to explore changing your enrollment model, please email swadvise@uh.edu.

You can request a 1-year deferral, subject to availability. If you cannot attend after the 1-year deferral period, you must reapply for admission. Please submit the Deferral Request Form and a GCSW staff member will contact you with more information.

Please see the MSW Estimate of Cost table.
