The information below is for all domestic applicants and international applicants for Spring 2023. International applicants applying for Summer or Fall 2023 can find the steps to apply and submit their documents here.
Application preferences
When you apply for more than one program in the same term, we will assign a preference based on the order in which each program was chosen. Please make note of the following before choosing your programs.
- Both programs you choose must be the same application type and in the same term.
- The first program you choose will be considered your first preference.
- Choose your second preference in the same application by selecting Next Program.
- If the same program is chosen more than once – on the same or different applications – we will only evaluate this if it is identified as your first preference. Subsequent applications for the same program will be deleted.
- Your second, third or later preferences for the term will not be evaluated unless an earlier application is waitlisted or declined.
- If you accept an offer, all other applications will be cancelled.
- We will not cancel your first choice if it is waitlisted. Review Apply to learn more about application preferences.
Next steps after your application
You will be able to monitor your application status under your mySAIT account. Based on the transcripts and documents we receive, your application will be evaluated and assigned a decision. Decisions aren't final and your application will be re-evaluated as it progresses through the admission process.
Application status
After your application is evaluated, it will be assigned an application status. When you submit updated documentation or progress through the competitive entry selection process, your application decision will be updated. Review the different application statuses including your next steps when one is assigned.
