Admissions

Admission to all graduate programs is granted by the Dean of the Graduate School and is restricted to those applicants whose previous academic records, including compatible Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores, indicate probable success as a graduate student in a particular program of study.

Individuals with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a GPA higher than 3.0 (out of 4.0) are encouraged to apply, as are those with similar GPAs whose Bachelor's degree is in Computer Engineering. Applications from individuals who majored in other fields will also be considered.

In addition to having exceptional academic records, international students must demonstrate unquestionable proficiency in the English language and the ability to finance their educational programs. In addition to transcripts and GRE scores, international students should submit TOEFL scores of at least 600 on the paper-based version, 250 on the computer-based version, and 100 on the internet-based version (IELTS score of at least 7.0).

Each applicant must submit a formal application, official transcript, and official GRE reports to the Dean of the Graduate School. As previously noted, an international applicant is also required to submit his/her official TOEFL score.  It is required that you include with your application a one- to two-page statement of purpose and at least three letters of recommendation from those familiar with your educational and/or work background. It is highly recommended that you include a resume with your application.
