The screenshots below show the sequence of how a new applicant creates a person account and starts an application in GradSlate.

Using the URL gradapply.uga.edu/apply/ takes an anonymous user to this page:

Clicking on “Create an account” under First-time users results in:

Screenshot of the Register page on which new users enter their email, first and last name, and birthdate. This allows creation of a new person record in GradSlate.

Both email address and birthdate will be used for further verification later in the process. Clicking “Continue” takes the user to a login page:

The email with the PIN is sent to the email address provided for the new account:

Filling in this PIN and repeating the birthdate originally submitted leads to password setting:

With person authentication set, clicking “Set Password” takes the applicant back to the app management page:

Clicking on “Start New Application” at the bottom of the screen opens a popup…

…on which clicking “START A UGA APPLICATION” takes the applicant to the Start an Application form:

Once an academic year (application cycle) is chosen, clicking “Submit” displays a confirmation message with a link back to the app management page:

Clicking on “here” takes the applicant back to their list of current applications in which the newly created application should appear. A confirmation email is also sent to the account’s email address providing another link to the app management page:

Clicking on the application (AC25-26 Graduate Application) generates a popup with a link to start completing the application:

Click the Open Application button, and the applicant starts on Application page 1 (Program/Term Selection):

Once the “Intended Program” and “Intended Term” are selected and “Continue” is clicked, the program and term will be listed next to the application link on the app management page (e.g., FA25-PHD_ILSC).
