Once we've reviewed your application and resume and determined that you will be moving to the next step of the process, we'll reach out to request the following items:
- Copies of transcripts from all higher education institutions (must be from a regionally accredited school). During preliminary interviews, we may photocopy these transcripts. However, as your candidacy formalizes, we'll need official transcripts.
- A 3-5 page excerpt of a paper you completed for any graduate-level work.
