GRADUATE ADMISSION & REQUIREMENTS

Application Deadlines

For Ph.D. applicants, applicants seeking financial aid, and all international applicants:

• Spring -- August 15
• Fall -- February 15

For US citizens not seeking financial aid:

• Spring -- Oct. 15
• Fall -- May 15

Admissions decisions are based, in large measure, on information derived from three sources:

• Performance in all prior degree programs (earned GPA, field(s), institution(s))
• GRE scores, especially the quantitative and analytical/analytical writing portions. Applicants to the ACO Program are encouraged to also submit scores for the subject test in mathematics.
• Credible letters of reference.

To give you an idea of the level of competition, we provide below some statistics relative to admitted applicants for the prior year. Note that the data reflects only a profile and are not intended to suggest strict "cut-offs." That said, you may want to examine the figures carefully in order to form a realistic assessment of your chances of being admitted to one of our graduate programs.

*Note that the stated GPA averages include many scores that have been "converted" from transcripts of academic work earned outside the U.S. Many of the latter involve grading systems that have a basis other than 4.0 and/or reflect different grading standards altogether.
