How does the admissions screening process work?
Admissions are competitive based on GRE scores, GPA (overall, major, and last 2 years), research experience, professional experience, letters of recommendation. Students with significant deficits in GRE or GPA may be screened out of the applicant pool early in the process. However, program faculty are permitted to sponsor applicants back into the pool at their discretion. Program faculty review applications and rate them on the above stated materials. Top-rated applicants will be invited for interviews. Students will be informed of admission decisions no later than April 1st.
