Any person admitted to the Graduate School must hold a Bachelor's Degree; normally, the undergraduate degree
must be awarded by an institution having regional accreditation. A prospective applicant who holds a Bachelor's
Degree from an educational institution that does not have regional accreditation may request consideration from the
Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences prior to making application for admission. In either case, the graduate
coordinator may prescribe specific undergraduate level courses as prerequisites to admission. Admission to
graduate studies is administered by the Office of the Graduate School.
For admission to a Master's Degree program in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, the
following are required:
- A minimum undergraduate grade point average on the last two years of undergraduate academic work of 2.75
on a 4.00 scale.
- A minimum score of 475 Paper-Based Test (PBT) or 153 Computer-Based Test (CBT) or 53 Internet-Based
Test (iBT) on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or an International English Language
Testing Systems (IELTS) score of 4.5 is required of international students (with some exceptions).
- In addition to the above requirements, a student is expected to possess those qualities that, in the judgement of
the departmental graduate faculty, indicate that the applicant has the ability to do graduate work.
- Submission of three letters of recommendation.
In addition to the admission requirements for a Master's Degree program,
admission to the Ph.D. program requires:
- Submission of a satisfactory score on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) General Test.
- In addition, a student is expected to possess those qualities that, in the judgement of the departmental graduate
faculty, indicate that the applicant has the ability to do graduate work at the doctoral level.
