In the master's program, admissions decisions are made at three points in the application cycle. Applications received by December 15th will be reviewed by February 15th, applications received by January 15th will be reviewed by March 15th, and decisions on applications received by the deadline, March 1st, will be made by April 30th. Admissions decisions for the doctoral program will be made by April 1st. This sum is credited toward Autumn quarter tuition. All applicants are required to pay an application fee of 70 United States dollars, by bank draft or postal money order.
Personal checks are acceptable only if written on a United States bank.
This fee is an official requirement for admission, and foreign governments will approve the release of funds for this purpose. Academic credentials, including courses taken, grades received, and degrees granted, should be sent directly to the School with the application. If this is not possible, copies in the applicant's possession may be acceptable if they have been certified by the proper school authorities. Applicants may not validate their own documents. The class or division of the degree must be stated if this is the customary method of reporting the quality of academic work.
