Technology Integration (TIP)

Here is a step-by-step account of how to apply to the TIP Program:

Be sure that the TIP program is right for you by reviewing the information on our web site. You should the Program Coordinator, if you have any general questions or concerns. You may also contact other faculty with questions or just to talk about your goals and whether our program is right for you.
If you decide to apply, contact the Graduate School and request that an application package be sent to you. They can be reached by phone: (706) 542 1739, or by e-mail (gradadm@arches.uga.edu). All of the forms (Application, Recommendation letters) can also be obtained from the UGA Graduate School Web site.There is also a complete on-line version of the UGA Gradute Bulletin.
Complete the application form and submit the $50 fee directly to the Graduate School Admissions Office.
Contact every college you attended and have them send two official transcripts directly to:

Office of Admissions
The Graduate School
Boyd Graduate Studies Research Center
The University of Georgia
Athens, GA 30602-7402

Take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and attain acceptable test scores on the verbal and quantitative sections (individually and combined). These scores must be sent directly by the Educational Testing Service to the Graduate School Admission Office. International students must also submit an acceptable TOEFL score.
Submit a Goal Statement that explains in detail (1-2 pages) your goals and why you are interested in the degree program to which you are applying (i.e. how your goals match up). Take some time with this. Imagine that you are speaking to our Admissions Committee when you write this (it is usually the first thing that is read). This statement can be sent directly to the program coordinator at:

Technology Integration Program Coordinator
Educational Psychology and Instructional Technology Department
The University of Georgia
Athens, GA 30602-7143

Submit three letters of recommendation. It is your choice who writes these letters, but keep in mind that these letters should be written by individuals who are able to speak about your professional qualifications and your potential for success in graduate study. These letters can be sent directly to the Program Coordinator (forms are included in the application packet from the Graduate School or from their web site).
Complete all of the required application materials so that they are received by the specific deadline dates listed in the individual program areas.
