The Application Process

The application is your chance to make a strong impression. Our evaluation process places an emphasis on your unique experience and engagement, including the schoolwork reflected in transcripts; what others say about your character and work ethic through recommendation letters; and your own reflections and perceptions revealed through your personal statement. We鈥檝e streamlined the graduate admissions process for maximum convenience.
