Deadlines

Deadlines are departmental

Application deadlines for each program of study are on our program summary pages.

Plan ahead

Applicants from outside the U.S. should be strategic and apply early. In some parts of the world, you may experience delays for steps like:

  • Obtaining official academic records from the schools you attended
  • Obtaining financial documents from your bank or sponsor
  • Having your non-English documents translated into English
  • Mailing your academic records and other application materials
  • Taking standardized tests and English proficiency exams and sending your scores
  • Getting an appointment for a visa interview at a U.S. Embassy or consulate
