Formally Accepting an Offer of Admission

While the most important contact you will have with SU as a graduate student will be with your academic unit, it is important at the outset of your graduate studies that you communicate directly with the Graduate Enrollment Management Center regarding a few items. Here's what we need from you (see details below):

Intent to Register Form

This form was included with your official letter of admission. You must complete and return it to formally accept the offer of admission. Please note that the permanent address appearing on the Intent to Register form will be used until you arrive on campus. Please update that address on the form before returning it, if necessary. Send completed forms* to:

*Note: Except admitted students to the Whitman School of Management; please refer to

Changing Your Semester of Enrollment

Even if you do not plan to enroll at Syracuse University in the semester for which you have been admitted, it is still important for you to return the Intent to Register form and indicate the term in which you do wish to enroll. If your academic unit approves this change, your admission record will be changed accordingly and you will be notified.

Tuition Deposit

The following graduate programs at SU require that new students submit a non-refundable tuition deposit with the Intent to Register form in order to secure their place in the entering class of students. The amount of the deposit is $400. Please note the response deadline information linked to each program below.

Offers of admission to these programs will be considered void if the tuition deposit has not been received by the deadlines indicated. Payment should be in the form of a check or money order payable to Syracuse University. International students should check here for further payment information. For students who do enroll for the semester for which they have been admitted, the deposit is credited to your Bursar account as an advance tuition payment. The deposit is not refunded for those students who do not enroll.
