人类学哲学博士

The Faculty of the Department of Anthropology recently voted to adopt a test-optional approach to graduate admissions and will no longer require the submission of Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores by applicants. By removing barriers to application faced by some students, we aim to recruit a more diverse pool of exceptional candidates to our graduate program and allow all applicants to create the application package that best represents their abilities, interests, and motivations in applying to graduate school.
