Graduate students must apply directly to a department for admission to specific degree programs. The individual Schools, departments, and programs establish their own requirements for admission. In all cases, a baccalaureate degree or its equivalent from an accredited undergraduate institution is required. Application materials should be requested from the individual School, department, or program in which the student wishes to undertake graduate study. A non-refundable application fee, payable in U.S. funds, is required of all applicants for graduate admission.
