Admission Guide

Use the Admission Guide to learn more about the admissions process.

Part 1: Graduate paths and recruitment weekends - Learn about the six graduate paths, or areas of specialization.

Part 2: Prescreening (includes degree, GPA, English proficiency, and GRE minimum requirements for application to the department)

  • If you meet all prescreening requirements, proceed to Part 3.
  • If you do not meet all prescreening requirements, do not proceed to Part 3; instead, stop at Part 2 and submit a special consideration email form if appropriate. Our graduate admission coordinator will respond to your special consideration email form; she may still recommend that you proceed to Part 3 and apply even if you do not meet all prescreening requirements.

Part 3: How to Apply - If you met all prescreening requirements, you will then view the 8 steps to a complete application for admission to our graduate program.
