Graduate admission decisions are made by each of the individual Graduate Departments and are competitive; thus, you should contact the specific department or program prior to applying to discuss your intent to apply. The decision to admit an applicant to a program of study leading to a graduate degree is the shared responsibility of an academic department, an intercollegiate faculty (where applicable) and/or a college.

Students are admitted each fall and spring semesters. Admissions information, including application deadlines and how to apply, can be found online. Once you complete the admission application, you will be sent a login and password to provide transcripts from all previous institutions, GRE scores, a current CV, statement of purpose, three references for recommendation to the program, and verification that you meet the English proficiency requirements. The initial review process will be based on information you upload to our site; however, admission is contingent on verification by our office of all test scores and official transcripts.

Admissions decisions are made on a competitive basis that take into account several aspects of a student’s portfolio so there are no minimum requirements in any category. Average GRE quantitative scores are 158 and average GPA is 3.6 on a 4.0 scale.

Regrettably the program does not have the resources to offer pre-screening of applications. It is recommended that you contact the advising staff at your own undergraduate institution for an evaluation of your current record and suggestions regarding where to apply for graduate school. Your undergraduate record, performance on the GRE, any undergraduate research experience, letters of recommendation, and your personal statement are all considered in our decision regarding admission.

There is no application for assistantship or fellowship. Both types of support are offered on a merit and competitive basis and are offered to incoming and current students by the program’s graduate committee. It is suggested that anyone interested in assistantship directly contact the faculty that share the same research interest and determine the likelihood of availability at the time of admission. Please visit the program website for information about research efforts.

The program has accepted students without undergraduate degrees in chemical engineering. However, receiving a positive decision can be more difficult, as this program builds on the undergraduate education of a chemical engineer. Like with all applicants, the decision depends on courses that you have taken as an undergraduate student, your level of preparation, and any industry experience in the chemical engineering field you may possess.
