Editor's notes
- Your application goes to the faculty of one program area, so pick the area deliberately and write the statement of purpose for those reviewers. The department asks for only two letters, even though the Graduate School system lists three, so choose the two strongest. Apply by January 15 for the best shot at department funding; international applicants need supporting materials in by January 31. The GRE is optional and not needed for funding consideration.
