The EngineeringCAS system may refer to these as “Evaluations.” Recommendation/evaluation letters are not required to be received at the time of the application in order for you to be allowed to submit your application. You can track the progress of your recommendation letter requests in EngineeringCAS. You can also email your recommenders a reminder through EngineeringCAS, or choose to send a request to another recommender. If a recommender is having trouble receiving your email request from EngineeringCAS for recommendation, please ask your recommender to login using the EngineeringCAS portal.
4. Required application fees:
   • Domestic students will be required to pay the EngineeringCAS processing fee ($58) and the Texas A&M University application fee of $65 for domestic applicants.

The Master of Science in Energy offered by the Texas A&M Energy Institute, and approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, has CIP code: 30.9999.04 Multi/Interdisciplinary Studies, Other. According to the United States Department of Homeland Security and the Student and Exchange Visitor Program, this code is not among the codes on the 2016 STEM designated list. The majority of the courses within the Master of Science in Energy at Texas A&M University are individually designated as STEM courses, but that factor alone is not sufficient to merit a full designation as a STEM program. Therefore, students who graduate with a Master of Science in Energy are not eligible for the Optional Practical Training Extension for STEM Students (STEM OPT).
