After I Submit My Application, What Happens Next?
Completed applications and supporting information are initially screened by faculty of the program of study to which the student is applying. The strongest candidates are invited to attend the Graduate School's Recruitment Days held in February. During the two day period, applicants experience program orientation; personal interviews; and opportunities to interact with fellow applicants, current graduate students, and faculty.
