Program Curriculum
- Your grades in the BSc courses.
- Applicants must present a GPA of 90 (or the equivalent).
- In cases of GPA lower than 90, candidates must add a one-page letter to the submissions file explaining why they should be considered.
- Recommendation letters: Reference letters are an important ingredient in the application, especially if they are from a faculty or a supervisor who worked closely with the candidate on a research project, or other scientific-related activity. On the other hand, we are typically not interested in receiving generic letters from lecturers in courses. If you cannot obtain a meaningful recommendation letter, it is not a problem and your application will be nevertheless considered.
- Details of your math/CS related background (publications, participation in various science programs, mathematics or computer science olympiads, etc)
- Some, but not all of the applicants, will be invited to an interview, in which case the results of the interview will also be taken into account. Should you be summoned to an interview, you will receive a letter explaining about the interview and how to best prepare for it.
- If you have a degree from a non-Israeli university then results of the GRE Math examination could be useful but not mandatory.
