Admission Request

International applicants must comply with the stipulated dates since they must carry out procedures to complete the visa application process and obtain consular appointments in their respective countries. Consular processes are out of our control, so they can take indeterminate periods of time. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted consular processes. The United States Department of State maintains up-to-date information on its page. For more information visit here.

National applicants should take into consideration that case evaluations will be subject to the availability of departmental graduate committees.
