Admission Requirements
Academic Requirements
You need the following GPA score:
Applicants for graduate programs must have the equivalent of a bachelor\xe2\x80\x99s degree with a minimum GPA equivalent to 3 on a US 4.0 grading scale. Admitted applicants typically have an undergraduate GPA of or better on a 4.0 scale. No exam grade should be lower than 4.5 (European grade scale) or D (American grade scale).
Your GPA (Grade Point Average) is calculated using the grades that you received in each course, and is determined by the points assigned to each grade (e.g. for the US grading scale from A-F).
Applicants should have a GPA of at least 3.00 (on a scale of 4.00). Applicants having the listed qualifications are, if accepted, classified as regular degree students. Applicants with an average below 3.00 and above 2.75 and/or lacking certain of the prerequisites listed above are sometimes considered for admission as provisional students.
These requirements apply to both the master\xc2\x92s and PhD programs. Applicants should be aware that admission to both programs is very competitive, and meeting the requirements does not ensure admission. Admission to the PhD program is especially competitive, and successful applicants, in general, have records considerably stronger in breadth and quality than these minimum standards suggest.
Financial aid is available to PhD students in the form of teaching and research assistantships and fellowships. Aid is sometimes available for master\xc2\x92s students as teaching assistants or graders, but positions are assigned only at the beginning of a semester.
Admission to the graduate programs (both MS and PhD) is offered only for fall semester. Applications from both domestic and U.S. students and international students should be received by December 15.
English Proficiency: IELTS 6 or equivalent.
