MS in Applied Mathematics

One official set from every college attended. Be sure to include grades and credits earned along with degree received (if applicable). Foreign transcripts need to include an official English translation. Please send or email a photocopy or an unofficial transcript to the Math Office with other materials. Students can send one copy of official transcripts to Math and we’ll photocopy and forward official paperwork to Graduate Admissions. Please send a note that we need to do that. You will need to upload an unofficial transcript on the online application systems for the review process.

Three letters of recommendation from individuals who can attest to your potential for graduate study in mathematics are required. Fill in the emails of your recommenders and then email is sent to them with submission instructions. Students who have attended REU or other similar programs, are encouraged to have a letter from their supervisor or program director. Letters from individuals not able to assess mathematics can be sent but should be above the required three letters and could be emailed or postal mailed to the department with the following form attached.

Mathematics requires additional form which can be sent by postal mail or email. You can access the form in the following two formats: (PDF) (MS Word)
