Applying to the Graduate School

A very convenient Online Application — Highly Preferred
Applying online will save you money ($55 vs. $75), will allow you to pay by credit card, and will provide a more rapid delivery of your application materials to the admissions committee. It is also much more convenient and fully secure. Click on the link above to see how easy it is!

A less convenient and more expensive Paper Application
The fee for applying by mail is $75. You can use the paper application by downloading the online PDF form and completing it. To access the PDF application, you will need to have a copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
