To be considered for admission in full graduate standing, applicants must have:
(a) a four-year bachelor's degree (or equivalent) from a regionally accredited college or university. Exceptions to standard accreditation may be granted for applicants with international degrees, including applicants with three-year degrees from institutions in Europe participating in the Bologna Process.
(b) a GPA of at least 3.00 (on a 4.00 scale) in their undergraduate degrees.
All of our graduate programs train students at the doctoral level. Students are selected in terms of their interest in pursuing the doctorate and the probability of their successful completion of that degree. We do not offer separate masters-level programs. Students admitted after 2015 will complete a structured second-year research project rather than a formal master's degree, although the MS may be awarded in some special circumstances upon the advice of the student's committee.
All supporting materials, including GRE scores, unofficial transcripts, and letters of recommendation, along with the completed application, should be uploaded by this date.
Three letters are customary and expected.
Applicants should upload scanned unofficial transcripts before submitting their applications.
