Is is possible to transfer into the Stanford graduate program from another graduate program?
We do not accept transfer students per se. We do accept many students into the program who have already earned or are working towards an M.A. in Linguistics. Students who are in the first couple of years in their current graduate program would be advised to complete the M.A. where they are, before transferring elsewhere for a Ph.D. program. Applicants to our Ph.D. program who already have an M.A. and are admitted would not be treated differently from other entering students: they would be expected to complete all Ph.D. requirements (qualifying papers, language requirements, dissertation proposal, dissertation, etc.), though some slight adjustments might be made to how they fulfill some of the course requirements. Students who are close to the dissertation stage in their current program or are already at this stage would be advised to complete their program where they are. Such students could apply to be a Visiting Student Researcher in our department, though there are fees involved. Fo
