Important Note About Application Deadlines
Programs may decide to extend a listed deadline. Applications submitted after an initial deadline is extended will be considered on a rolling basis. While we use the same criteria and standards to evaluate all applications, regardless of submission date, fewer admission spaces are available as decisions are made, so applying early is advantageous. Note programs may provide minimal advanced notice before closing for application; applying as soon as you know your program choice and designated referees is optimal.
Helpful Tips
- Visit our Graduate Funding webpage for more information about our funding packages for full-time PhD programs and non-professional MA programs.
- Be sure to research and apply to external sources of funding, as many external awards and fellowships have early application dates. You do not need to have been accepted already to apply for sources of funding.
- Review information about tuition, fees, and financing your graduate studies
- Non-funded programs are not included in the graduate funding package. Some financial assistance may be available through scholarships, awards, bursaries and government student loans.
