The holder of a bachelor’s degree from any accredited college or university is eligible for consideration for admission to our graduate program. It is normally expected that entering graduate students will possess basic competence in advanced calculus and linear algebra.

In addition to completing the online application form, all applicants are required to submit the following:

• Undergraduate and graduate transcripts from all past institutions
• Personal statement
• CV or resume
• Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores are optional but preferred
• Three (3) letters of recommendation

International students for whom English is not the native language and who have not completed a baccalaureate or master’s degree program from a University where instruction was primarily done in English must submit language test scores (TOEFL, IELTS, or Pearson PTE). Please note, official language test scores must be on file by the time of application review.

GRE scores should be on file at Case Western Reserve University while applications are being considered. Letters of recommendation should originate from individuals who are able to assess the applicant’s mathematical ability.
