The following are requirements for admission to the PhD/LIS Program:

A master's degree from a program accredited by the American Library Association, a recognized international program, or the equivalent in a closely related field of study. Students must submit official transcripts as evidence.
Attainment in previous graduate work of a minimum quality point average of 3.50 (on a scale with A having a value of 4 points per credit). An international student's quality point average will be calculated on the basis of equivalency from universities that use a different scale.
Submission of scores from a predictor test, such as the Graduate Record Examination (or other test as listed below) taken within the last three years.
At least three (3) references from persons in the academic and professional communities. The LIS Committee on Doctoral Studies may, on occasion, require additional references.
An interview (in person, by telephone or using web conferencing tools) may be required as part of the admissions process for selected candidates, after an initial screening of their application materials.
Submission of an application fee.
The Department of Information Culture and Data Stewardship seeks students with diverse educational and career backgrounds. By nature, LIS degrees are multi-disciplinary, and we welcome applicants with bachelor's degree and/or advanced degrees from diverse disciplinary backgrounds. Our multi-disciplinary nature is reflected in the wide range of standardized tests that are accepted by our admissions committee, which include the GRE, MAT, MCAT, GMAT, and LSAT
