Graduate School Application Form

Graduate school admissions require careful coordination of transcripts, test scores, recommendation letters, and research statements—often across multiple systems and email threads. This Graduate School Application Form brings everything together in one professional, easy-to-navigate experience that reflects well on your institution while making life easier for applicants and admissions teams alike.

Built for universities, colleges, and graduate programs looking to modernize their application process, this template guides prospective students through every requirement—from academic history and GRE scores to research interests and faculty advisor preferences—without the confusion of outdated PDF forms or clunky portals.

Why Paperform for graduate admissions?

Paperform lets you create an on-brand, mobile-friendly application that feels as polished as your program. Conditional logic shows or hides sections based on degree type, previous education, or funding needs, so applicants only see what's relevant to them. Calculation fields can handle application fee logic, while file upload fields securely collect transcripts, CVs, and writing samples.

Once submitted, you can route applications to the right department, sync data into your CRM or student information system, and trigger follow-up emails—all without manual data entry. And because Paperform is SOC 2 Type II compliant, you can trust it to handle sensitive applicant data responsibly.
