Graduate applicants are advised to contact their specific graduate departments (PDF 163 KB) directly for additional requirements, documents, minimum grade point averages, and application deadlines (for instance, applicants to some graduate programs must submit official GRE test results, and nearly all departments require a statement of objectives and three letters of recommendation).
