1. What is the application deadline? Can I apply after the deadline?

The application deadline is January 10 in each calendar year, for entrance into MA, MSc and PhD programs in September of the same year. Complete applications received by January 10 will be considered in the first round of decisions. Depending on how many offers are made in the first round, it is possible that a second round of applications will be considered in the spring of the same calendar year.

Complete applications submitted after January 10 and before June 30 will only be considered for outstanding students, with the support of a prospective faculty advisor. However, most spaces will be filled, and most awards assigned, after the first round. To ensure that you will be considered in the first round, you should aim to have your application (all components) uploaded by January 10.

NOTE: a complete application includes the following components: a. name of potential advisor[s], b. two or three Assessment of an Applicant for Graduate Studies from academics (professors are preferred), c. statement of research interest, d. Resume/CV, e. transcripts from all institutions you have attended (even if one course was taken), and f. English Language Proficiency Test (see requirements here).
