Admission to Graduate Program

The Mathematics Department’s faculty and students are engaged in research activities in a variety of areas of pure and applied mathematics and statistics. Both our MA and PhD degree programs feature a broad-based foundation and are flexible to accommodate specialization.

Learn about graduate program

All applications should be submitted online. In general, graduate students are admitted in the fall semester. Our program and course sequences are designed with that in mind. The Graduate Committee of the Department of Mathematics evaluates the candidates and makes recommendations to the Graduate School regarding admission. The number of students admitted into the program changes from year to year and admissions are made on a competitive basis. We consider candidates only after all application materials have been received.

There are no additional application forms for financial support; students are considered for support based on merit.
