APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2012-2013 ACADEMIC SESSION

(International Applications are now closed)

Graduate Application Form

Applications are available on-line from the School of Graduate Studies for the 2012-2013 academic session. The deadline to have completed applications into the School and be considered for funding for both September and January admission is January 15, 2012. (please note our program is geared for a September start and that we take very few applicants for the January session) Applications will not be considered complete without all university transcripts, graduation certificates if applicable, 2 letters of academic reference and a statement of interest. Documentation received in the school after this date is considered a late application. Applications from domestic students will still be accepted past the Jan. 15th deadline provided there is still space and available funding. Our program is highly competitive with very limited spaces for international applicants. Your best strategy after completing an application is to contact a limited number of faculty in your area of research. Please quote your application number in your email to them. Students are admitted to a supervisor if deemed admissible by the admission committee.

Please go to "Thinking of Applying" on the School of Graduate Studies web site for details on applying and submitting an application. To create an account for your application, please click on the "Apply now" link on the bottom of that webpage.

Note: Incomplete applications will not be considered.
