What you need to apply...

Dear Prospective Student,

There is a new process in effect for MASP graduate applications for Fall 2017.  You apply to the CSU first through CSU Mentor.  After you have completed that application, a link will be sent to your email for you to open and fill out the supplemental Sociology application. 

The Sociology application will require that you answer questions about your education history and background questions. In addition, you will be asked to provide the names and email addresses for the three people (a minimum of two must be from former or current instructors) who have agreed to write you a letter of recommendation, a writing sample, a statement of purpose, and your unofficial transcripts from all colleges you have attended. The application procress will not be complete until you send your official transcripts from all colleges you have attended besides CSUSM to Graduate Admissions as well. The application period runs from Oct. 1st to March 1st.  We will not review applications until after the March due date.

It is important to give yourself plenty of time to fill out the application and to submit it a few weeks before the due date. Please not that the links for the letters of recommendations are sent to your recommenders after you complete the recommendations page (your application does not have to be complete for them to be sent). Be sure to give your recommenders sufficient time to write and upload your letters before March 1st.
