Graduate Admissions

The Strategic Alternative Learning Techniques (SALT) Center offers enhanced services designed to support the success of students with learning and attention challenges. Within the last several years we have begun offering services to qualified graduate students. Students have the opportunity to meet regularly with a strategic learning specialist who can provide assistance in developing effective organizational strategies for success in a graduate degree program. The resources provided are based on students' degree programs, academic goals, and specific strengths and challenges. Students also have opportunities to benefit from a computer lab with assistive technology, a Writer's Lab, and skill development workshops. Please contact SALT Admissions for more information or questions about graduate level services within the SALT Center.

Application Process for Graduate Students:

• Application Form

  A completed, signed, and dated form is required.

• Application Fee

  The fee is $40.00 if you are a non-Arizona resident or $15.00 if you are an Arizona resident, in the form of a check payable to The University of Arizona.



• Documentation Specifications

  Students either need to submit the comprehensive testing that determined a diagnosis of a learning or attention challenge or they must include information on the application describing their history of academic challenges.
  
  Please refer to the "accommodation" section to find out how to properly document a learning disability and/or ADHD.
