Prospective Student Inquiries
We highly recommend that prospective applicants:
1. Attend one of our monthly information sessions
This online presentation will walk you through details about the program, curriculum, research, funding, the application process, and more; followed by Q&A. For many, this is the most efficient way to learn about the program.
2. Review our website. Particularly the following pages:
- ⭐ Admissions – Bookmark this as your guide for our admission requirements and application materials!
- Courses and requirements
- Areas of emphasis
- Cost and aid – Includes PhD training grants, assistantships, and funding guides
- Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
3. Send remaining questions via email or book a virtual appointment
