Second-year students work individually with a faculty member to complete this requirement. Generally, applications are due on March 1. The specific due date is in the department application materials. Applicants should make every effort to see that their application is in the department and complete by the due date. After the due date, applications are sent out to the clinical faculty for review.
Late applications are at a severe disadvantage.
The applicant is strongly encouraged to make sure their application is complete by the due date. This means personally checking with the department before the due date to see what parts of the application have arrived. Common slip-ups are transcripts and letters of recommendation not being sent. Incomplete or late applications are at a severe disadvantage because faculty review happens quickly after the due date. Only the general portion of the GRE is required.
