Application Process

Overview

Admission to the M-EID program is competitive and based on GRE scores, GPA (overall and in program of study), course work, letters of recommendation, essay, portfolio, other evidence of scholarly achievement, area of interest, and availability of resources. It is not necessary that prior degrees are in the selected program of study for acceptance into this graduate program, but the applicant's background or experience should be in a closely related field. Students accepted into the M-EID program are required to have taken, or to take, certain undergraduate courses considered basic for a degree from each of the programs of study. In some cases, this may require taking courses that do not carry graduate credit to make up deficiencies. Contact the M-EID office with any questions you may have.

Application Deadline
