*NOTE: ETSU does not accept faxed or emailed transcripts from students as official documents. Emailed transcripts must come from the reporting institution and sent directly to documents@etsu.edu. Electronic transcripts may also be received through an approved electronic transcript service.

Transcripts sent through the Parchment electronic transcript service should designate willmd01@etsu.edu as the recipient.

 

Call 423-439-4213 or email admissions@etsu.edu to check on your application status! We will always send communication to applicants to let them know their application was received, and whether any missing documents need to be submitted. If you have not heard anything at all, it is most likely that your $25 application fee has not been received, which prevents your application from being electronically processed. Please contact us for assistance.

Once we have received your application, an ETSU username and ID will be emailed to you so you may monitor the status of your application as it goes through the review process. To view your status please visit, https://www.etsu.edu/activate. You may also call 423-439-4213 or email admissions@etsu.edu or contact your designated admission counselor for more information here.
