Entry requirements

All Graduate School requirements , including the English language proficiency requirement for all applicants; Letters of recommendation: two (minimum) or three (maximum); GRE general required; Academic statement of purpose; Resume; Writing sample. There is no need to create a new piece of writing, and we would generally prefer not to receive an example of scientific writing. If you have any other sample of English writing–a history paper, an essay, a poem–of short length, that should be more than adequate. Application deadline: Fall, June 1

Graduate fields set their own fall and spring admission deadlines; some fields (for example Communication PhD) admit for fall only.

Graduate School applications are submitted online through the Graduate School application; the application fee is $105 (non-refundable, waivers available). Each graduate field sets its own fall and spring deadlines, and many fall between early December and mid-January.
