Graduate (MS/PhD) Programs

Admission requirements for graduate study vary greatly among the different fields of study. Similarly, there is not a centralized admission process for applying to graduate school. Each university handles its own application processing. Applications are usually for both admission and financial assistance in the form of fellowships or assistantships. Students are encouraged to contact the specific university in which they are interested. Graduate admissions personnel within each university are an excellent source of information on graduate programs in specific disciplines at other institutions as well.
