    Notes:
  • The above tables show how many applications were received for a given year
  • Counts include only "new" applicants, i.e. students who have never previously matriculated into The Graduate School
  • Counts include degree-seeking applications only, and only those applications for which an application fee was received
  • Some programs offer "certificate" degrees - the count of these can be determined by subtracting Masters and Doctoral from the total
  • An academic year is defined here as Summer Session through Spring Term
  • For each category (e.g. Masters), the percentage shown is the percentage of the total applications for the group
  • Gender is self-reported and optional, so males+females may not equal the total
  • "International" means non-citizens and non-permanent residents
  • "Minority" includes citizens and permanent residents of African-American, Asian-American, Hispanic/Chicano/Latino, American Indian, and Hawaiian ethnicity
  • Ethnicity is self-reported

  • The above tables show how many students matriculated (registered for the term they were admitted) for a given year
  • An academic year is defined here as Summer Session through Spring Term
  • For each category (e.g. Masters), the percentage shown is the percentage of the admits for the category that matriculated, or the "yield"
  • Gender is self-reported and optional, so males+females may not equal the total
  • "International" means non-citizens and non-permanent residents
  • "Minority" includes citizens and permanent residents of African-American, Asian-American, Hispanic/Chicano/Latino, American Indian, and Hawaiian ethnicity

    Notes:
  • The above tables show how many admitted students (the 'N'), by academic year, took each GRE exam, their average score, and the score distribution
  • An academic year is defined here as Summer Session through Spring Term
  • The Graduate School does not require GRE exams for admittance, but many programs do; The Graduate School often receives scores for applicants even though they are not required
  • Score ranges are 200-800 (Verbal, Quantitative, and Analytical) and 0.0-6.0 (Analytical Writing)
