  3. GRE test scores. Only the General Aptitude test is required for applicants to the graduate program in History. These scores must be sent officially from ETS, and should be sent directly to the Graduate School.  Since ETS is often delayed in the reporting of scores, applicants should complete all GRE exams by the end of October to ensure timely receipt of test scores.  When sending your score report to UNC, please use the institutional code number 5816.  There is no separate code for the Department of History.  Do not send photocopies of your GRE exam scores; our Graduate School must receive official test score reports directly from ETS.
  4. Official Transcripts (to be sent both to the Graduate School and to the Department of History)Please note that you must send transcripts for all courses taken that count towards the degree(s) you claim as the basis for admission to graduate school, including courses at community or junior colleges, summer school, and study abroad programs.  Transcripts must show course taken and the grade received.  If you seek entry at the M.A. level, you must send transcripts of all courses counting towards the B.A.; if applying at the Ph.D. level, you must send transcripts of all courses counting towards your M.A. as well as your B.A. degree.
