Computer Science - Application to the Bachelor of Science Program
Follow these steps to apply for the graduate program in Computer Science.
Step One
Fill out the online application. The UHCL Office of Admissions will send you an acknowledgement letter, including an admission documentation checklist. You will also receive a student ID and password giving you access to UHCL E-Services. E-Services allow you to track your admission status and view an updated checklist to monitor your application’s progress.
Note: Send all transcripts of previously attended colleges and test scores to UHCL Office of Admissions.

If you want to submit the optional "Letters of Intent," "Letters of Recommendation," or similar documents, send them directly to the Computer Science Admission Committee for review.

The Committee’s address is:
University of Houston-Clear Lake
Computer Science Admission Committee
School of Science and Computer Engineering
2700 Bay Area Blvd., Suite 3611
Houston, TX 77058-1098
After you complete your application, the Office of Admissions will evaluate the transcripts. The Admissions staff will then forward the entire application package to the advising office of the School of Science and Computer Engineering (SCE).
Step Two
The School's Advising Office will further review your transcripts for transfer hours, GPA, and core curriculum and program foundation courses completed. Then they will prepare the application package for the admission review
Step Three
The Computer Science Admission Committee then reviews your application package.
The admission committee considers many factors in a holistic manner to determine acceptance. Their criteria include GPA, GRE scores, grades earned in computer science and mathematics courses, undergraduate majors, recommendation letters, and your letter of intent.
The evaluation and review takes approximately one month once you have completed your application file. Then you will receive a letter notifying you of your admission status. If you are accepted into the master's program, the letter will contain committee recommendations (if any) and specify your faculty advisors. Admission assigns faculty advisors during the review process; they will consider your request for specific faculty advisors.
You may track your application status via E-Services. You may also contact the UHCL Office of Admissions (call 281-283-2500 or
uhcl_applicants@uhcl.edu) or SCE Advising Office (call 281-283-3711 or
sceadvising@uhcl.edu). Since the Office of Admissions will not notify you when your application file is complete, it is your responsibility to verify that your application file is complete.
The
advising and
admission pages of the SCE offer additional useful information. Prospective students may also visit the
future student pages of the UHCL website for
general information about admission, including general
admission requirements,
admission procedures, and an
online application.
