Transcripts from Chinese Institutions
All applicants pursuing, but who have not yet earned, undergraduate or graduate degrees from universities in China may submit official transcripts (in sealed envelopes directly from the university) to be used for admission consideration. Please mail them to the address listed in the summary section below. If the program recommends that the applicant be admitted, the applicant will be required to send all official transcripts and certificates, showing degree conferral, to the China Academic Degrees and Graduate Education Development Center (CDGDC) to obtain verification of these documents, before formal admission the Michigan State University will be granted.
Applicants who have already completed graduate and/or undergraduate degrees from Chinese institutions need to submit their transcripts and certificates directly to the CDGDC at the time of application. So that the application review process is not delayed, they may also submit official transcripts (in sealed envelopes directly from the institution) to the program secretary, to be used for admissions determination. Again, formal admission the Michigan State University will not be granted until documents and verification arrive from the CDGDC.
CDGDC operates underneath the Ministry of Education for the purpose of verifying the authenticity of transcripts and degrees granted at the post-secondary level. They do this not only for overseas universities, but for employers and organizations within China as well.

Curriculum Vitae:
Current Resume/Vita
Personal Statement:
Statement of Professional Goals (Goal Statement)
From an autobiographical perspective, applicants should discuss their reasons for pursuing a master’s degree in kinesiology. This statement is a very important part of the file for the review committee. Candidates should present a thoughtful and extended written portrait, approximately two pages long, double-spaced, of their reasons for pursuing advanced graduate study, the match between their goals and the program's characteristics, and the major issues of scholarly and professional interest that they wish to explore during their graduate career. It is important to mention shared interests with specific MSU Kinesiology faculty members. Applicants should respond to the following questions:
How have my experiences and intellectual growth shaped questions that an advanced graduate program might help me to explore?
What sorts of academic and professional leadership roles would the program and degree help me to assume?
What obstacles to educational achievement for professional growth have I overcome?
Ensure the Goals statement is in PDF format before entering the portal. Upload the PDF in the Graduate Education Portal by selecting "Goal Statement" or "Personal Statement" from the drop-down list.
Recommendation Letter:
Letters of Recommendation
By clicking on the "Letters of Recommendation" tab in the Graduate Education Application Portal, you can add your recommenders' information. You will be asked to waive or not waive access to the letters of recommendation you solicit. If you do not waive your access, it is likely that your letter of recommendation will have little impact on your evaluation for the program.
Applicants should solicit three recommenders, who will each submit a recommendation letter and answer some program specific questions attesting to the applicant's academic ability or their professional qualifications -- e.g., professors with whom courses were taken, undergraduate degree advisor, or a professional supervisor. When an applicant adds the required information about each recommender, the system will automatically send a link through e-mail (from the admis@msu.edu e-mail address) where the recommender can evaluate the candidate and submit a letter of recommendation. As a result, it is most helpful to solicit recommendations from individuals who best know the applicant's academic and professional skills. Letters from instructors who taught the candidate at the undergraduate level are particularly effective for this purpose, while letters from workplace supervisors may be less so.
The purpose of these letters is to show the review committee the qualities the applicant could bring to the program that are likely to make him or her successful in advanced graduate study. In addition to the letter of recommendation, the recommender will be asked to assess the probability of your success in meeting the programs standards in a variety of areas, including for example, oral and written expression, likelihood of scholarly and professional achievement, etc. through supplemental questions asked when the recommender follows the link they are sent.
Applicants need to be prepared to enter the following information into the Portal for each of their three recommendation writers:
First Name
Last Name
E-mail address
Please be certain that you have a mutual agreement and understanding with your Recommenders prior to submitting their information into the system. You are responsible for ensuring that the proper number of recommendation letters are submitted on your behalf. The Graduate Education Application Portal will keep you apprised of the status of your requests for letters of recommendation. You may need to follow up with your recommenders regarding missing letters to complete your application. If they do not recall receiving an e-mail, have them search for a message from admis@msu.edu. We advise giving your Recommenders ample time before the deadline to submit their letters.
Statement of Financial Proof:
Statement of Financial Proof/Affidavit of Support and Bank Statements
