Admission into our on-campus Ph.D. program is for fall semesters only. The official application deadline is December 1 for both domestic and international students.

Our faculty and staff strongly encourage all applicants to submit required application materials two weeks prior to the deadline. Failure to submit application materials by the date will prevent application review. After December 15, no additional application materials or revisions will be accepted. Please see the list below for the required application materials.

Required Application Materials
