Recommendations
As a part of the online application, you will be asked to provide contact information for three individuals who could provide professional recommendations if contacted by the Admissions Committee during the review process.  As you decide who to list, please note that we are seeking recommendations from individuals who are familiar with you from a professional setting, as opposed to personal friends or former faculty members.

The Admissions Committee will decide which recommenders will be contacted during the review process. If you wish to guarantee that the recommender’s input will be reviewed with your application, you may choose to ask your recommender to submit an online recommendation form on your behalf using the recommendation tool provided in the online application. Please note that paper recommendations or letters will not be accepted.

Credentials presented in a language other than English must be submitted with a certified English translation. For transcripts from colleges or universities outside the U.S., an evaluation from a professional evaluation agency within the U.S. may be requested.
