Students with a Bachelor's or Master's degree from another university are welcome to apply to our Doctoral Program. When reviewing applications, we do not just look at one indicator of future academic success. Our admissions committee reviews all of the applicants' submitted materials, including undergraduate and graduate (if applicable) coursework and grades, overall grade point average (GPA) and GPA within the major, the rigor of the institutions attended, Graduate Record Exam scores, the personal statement, letters of recommendation, relevant research experiences and publications, and any other relevant personal or professional experiences.
Although we do not have fixed cutoff scores, we seek applicants with Graduate Record Exam (GRE) scores above the 85th percentile, who have a GPA of 3.5 and above. For international students, a minimum TOEFL score of 600, or a computer based score of 250, or a minimum TOEFLibt score of 100, also is required.
