I am currently enrolled as a graduate student in Department XYZ. How do I transfer from XYZ to Computer Science?
Transfers from another department into CS are evaluated just like a regular application to the CS department. First, complete and submit a change of graduate program request form (available from the Graduate School forms page). This will enable us to request your application file (GRE scores, transcripts, recommendation letters, and essentially all components of the original application) to be sent over from the graduate school to the CS department for evaluation. It is department policy to approve transfers primarily for research-track students, i.e., either Masters thesis or Ph.D., and for whom a CS faculty member has agreed to serve as the thesis advisor.
