Admission to the Department of Statistical Sciences requires a bachelor's degree from an institution in the United States, or proof of equivalent training at a foreign university. For additional admission requirements, please go to prerequisites for degrees.

2. How do I apply to your program?

You will need to submit the application online and pay the $50 application fee. Required supplemental application materials are official GRE scores sent from ETS (and TOEFL scores for international students), three letters of recommendation, official transcripts from all colleges or universities that you have attended, along with proof of degree for institutions outside of the U.S.
