Instructions for logging on to ApplyYourself

In order to view the files of NGP graduate applicants in the on-line application system (Apply Yourself), you need to complete the two steps below. Please remember that the information in these files is confidential

Step 1: Complete the Tutorial and register for ApplyYourself access
To view information about candidates you need to have completed the FERPA tutorial which is available at: https://www.usc.edu/dept/ARR/ferpa/

Please read the FERPA guidelines on the webpage and then take the Tutorial. Then forward the completion certificate to Dawn Burke via e-mail and keep a copy for your records.Note that completion of FERPA training usually takes less than thirty minutes.

Once you have been FERPA-certified you may ask ngp@usc.edu for a spreadsheet containing vital statistics for candidates who will be interviewed. For more detailed and up-to-date information about all candidates (including their transcripts and letter of reference), you may view all application materials using ApplyYourself (AY). Simply complete the top portion of the User Account application from and send it along with the FERPA completion certificate, to Dawn Burke(which you can forward since the completion certificate is an email confirmation). She will complete the application form and submit the request for AY access.
