MS in Mathematics

Applicants may submit the unofficial copy of their transcripts as long as the transcripts are in English, and include the applicant's name, institution's name, courses, and grades listed on the transcript clearly.

This statement should include your reasons for wanting to pursue graduate study at Tufts and within the Department of Mathematics. Discuss what makes mathematics exciting to you. In addition, please include a description of a math problem or topic that challenged you early in your undergraduate experience. Discuss how you, perhaps with the help of others, overcame those difficulties to understand the problem better and how you presently understand it. Do not be afraid to choose something from a "basic" class like calculus. We are interested in hearing about how you have developed your interest in mathematics, not about your achievements.

Your current résumé or CV including dates of your educational history, employment, academic honors, scholarships, publications and other activities should be uploaded as part of your completed application.
