Office of Admissions

A J number is your unique student ID used to access self-service tools (i.e. JagWire and Blackboard). Once we receive your admissions application, we will send you this ID by standard mail and email. You can also call (210) 784-1300 to retrieve your student ID.  

If you are a former A&M-San Antonio student (attended previously) your student ID may begin with a K rather than a J number. Our communication will make it clear which ID to use.

Yes, you can pay for your application fee via credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) on ApplyTexas before submitting your application. You can also pay via check or money order at our Student Business Services Office. Former students who still have access to JagWire may be able to pay via MoneyConnect. Call Student Business Services to check if you are able to pay via MoneyConnect.

If you have received an application fee waiver via SAT, ACT or other entity, the office of admissions will review and consider waiving your application fee. For more information on application fee waivers please click here.

Yes. You can visit our Check Your Admissions Status page and follow the detailed directions to check the status of your application.

Once you are at JaguarDen, your Login ID  will be your unique student ID, which begins with either a J or a K (must be capitalized). Your PIN will be your six digit date of birth (MMDDYY).

Review Application Status:

If Application Status is Incomplete Items Outstanding, see Requirement/Received section.  If the Received portion does not have a date, then that item has not been received.

If Application Status is Complete Ready for Evaluation, on average, it can take up to three weeks for an admission decision to be made. Processing times will vary due to volume.

If Application Status is Decision Made, then check Decision

Graduate Students :

If Application Status is Out to Department, the Office of Admissions has not received an admissions decision from the department. For questions on the status, please contact the department of your anticipated major.

If Decision is Conditionally Admitted, full admission is pending graduate test scores (GRE, GMAT, MAT). You have until mid-term of your first semester to submit acceptable scores.

No, the graduate admissions test requirement is waived for students who have a master's degree.

However, the department of your intended major has the right to require graduate admissions test scores and can make that a condition of your admission offer. You may need to work with the academic advisor for your intended major to determine if the test score requirement will be waived.

Yes. Texas A&M University-San Antonio does honor application fee waivers that our applicants provide such as ACT, SAT, McNair Scholar, etc. However, A&M-San Antonio does not offer institutional fee waivers. You must provide fee waiver documentation to be reviewed for an application fee waiver. If you have fee waiver documentation, please submit that documentation to admissions@tamusa.edu for review. If your fee waiver is approved, the application fee will be waived in accordance with the fee waiver provided and the application submitted. 

Note for Graduate Students :

The ApplyTexas Graduate application currently does not have the option to choose an application fee waiver on the payment page of the application (the final page). However, A&M-San Antonio does honor application fees waiver for our graduate applicants. If you plan to submit an application fee waiver, please choose the “Pay with Check or Money Order” option on the payment page. The Office of Admissions has an internal process for reviewing application fee waivers for graduate students. Please remember you must provide fee waiver documentation to be reviewed for an application fee waiver which can be sent to graduateadmissions@tamusa.edu. On the payment page of the application, please do not make a credit card payment. If you pay the application fee by credit card, on the payment page in ApplyTexas, we will not be able to waive your application fee even if you have appropriate documentation as we are not able to refund paid application fees. If you have any further questions on the fee waiver process please see the attached document or call (210) 784-1300 and ask to speak with an Admissions Counselor.

Please verify that your student ID is correct. The forms can only be submitted using a correct student ID.
