Graduate Programs

Master's and Ph.D. Programs and How to Apply

Each doctoral and master's degree program handles its own admissions requests directly. Therefore, inquiries from both U.S. and international students concerning specific graduate programs should be addressed to the chair of the department or program concerned. The Web site and contact information for each program is available below.

Some departments use online applications, while others require the application to be submitted as hard copy. For the latter, please print out the PDF application and mail it directly to the program or department to which you are applying.

To prevent delays in processing your application, please be sure that your letters of recommendation and college transcripts are forwarded to the department or program to which you are applying. Do not forward these documents to the Graduate School Office.

For Clark undergraduates interested in the accelerated B.A./Master's Degree Program.
