Applications are reviewed by the Admissions Committee and by an academic adviser. We look for evidence of your potential to be successful. Primary consideration is given to your academic performance, the rigor and content of your coursework, and your documented English language proficiency. We also consider your motivation, commitment and readiness for university life, as demonstrated in your application essay and discussed in your academic recommendations.
