Graduate Admissions

Graduate Admissions
Plymouth campus building

Plymouth State University’s accredited graduate programs in business, health and wellness, education, and the arts and sciences provide you with the knowledge and practical skills to achieve your career goals.


Whether you are a current undergraduate student, a working adult exploring a career change, or looking to advance your education with a graduate degree, we would love to talk with you!

We understand starting a graduate program is a big decision, so we are here to help make your experience more individualized and personal. The best way to start is to talk with someone from the Graduate Admissions Team in-person, over the phone, or by zoom.

Getting to know you, what your goals and career aspirations are, where are you in your life, and how PSU can help fit graduate study into your schedule is the first step. We also encourage prospective students to connect with the program coordinator or a faculty member to learn more about the program itself – we will help make those connections.

Application and Deadlines

Information Sessions & Campus Tours

Our information sessions provide an opportunity to ask questions, hear about our admissions requirements and process, and connect with faculty. Information sessions are held either in-person or via Zoom, or you can contact the Graduate Admissions team to schedule an individual session. 

If you are local to Plymouth, or happen to be in the area, we would gladly arrange a campus tour by appointment with one of our PSU tour guides. These are short walking tours led by current students who will take you through our library, a classroom/office building and the Hartman Union Building (HUB) and answer any questions you have. This tour is approximately 30 minutes and at the end you will have a chance to talk with either a faculty member for your program of interest, or one of our Graduate Admissions Team members.
