Graduate Program
M.S. and Ph.D. Programs
- What are the application deadlines?
For fall admission the deadline is February 1.
For spring admission the deadline is October 1.
- Is the GRE required?
GRE scores are not required. If a student has taken them (which is often the case when applying to several universities), we are interested in seeing the scores, but they are not required. It will not be accounted against you if you do not report GRE scores. The application portal will display that the GRE is required, but we will waive the GRE requirement once all other parts of the application are complete.

GTA positions are offered with a majority of admissions. All applicants are considered for GTA/GRA positions unless noted otherwise.
We do not hire GTAs from outside of our department.
