All applications are submitted online at the Graduate Studies Office and are due by December 10th for the following academic year.
Important graduate admissions update for applicants to the Fall 2027 cohort: The GRE general test is recommended and the GRE physics subject test is required. GRE general test scores are not a required component of the application. But for applicants who decide to submit GRE general scores, they will be considered in our evaluations.

The Math Graduate Admissions Committee will review the applications, and recommendations for admission are sent to the Graduate Studies Office. The official offer of admission comes from the Graduate Studies Office via email though the online application system, generally during the month of February. Students must respond to our offer by April 15th.
Please visit the Graduate Office for Frequently Asked Questions regarding admissions.
Financial support for math graduate students is guaranteed for 5 years, provided the student is making satisfactory academic progress. Students are generally supported by a Graduate Teaching Assistantship for the academic months (October - June) and either by a Graduate Research Assistantship or math department fellowship for the summer months (July - September). All assistantships and fellowships include a full tuition grant and monthly stipend to cover living expenses. All support is independent of whether the student is domestic or international. Graduation is expected by June of the 5th year of study, so financial support is not covered for the summer after the 5th year.
