It is critical that all applicants maintain a current and correct email address, so that we can communicate with you via email. You should hear something from us by April 1 for Fall applicants and October 1 for Spring applicants.
We cannot pre-screen applications due to many elements associated with the graduate admissions. Admission to the graduate program depends on many components including comparison of academic records, GRE scores, TOEFL scores (for international students), recommendation letter, professional activities you have performed including research experience and your personal statement. You have to apply for admission prior to any other process, and please do not send your request.

This depends on which semester you are applying for admission and when tests are given in your area. Please see the GRE website at www.gre.org for more information on when to take the test in your area. These scores are required for your application so you should ensure that you take the test early enough to have them sent at the same time you send in your application.
