FAQs

• What materials are required with my application?

  

  We require transcripts, TOEFL or IELTS (international students only), and three letters of recommendation. In addition, each candidate is asked to write a personal statement of interest as part of the application packet. Please complete all sections of the application. The institution code for TOEFL is 2672. No department code is required. NOTE: It is important that all materials reach us by the application deadline in order for your application to receive full consideration. The only exception is computer-based test scores for tests taken in early December. Late or missing materials will seriously hurt your chance for admission. It is your responsibility to see that we receive all materials on time.

• Can I transfer credits from another school to Princeton toward receipt of my Ph.D.?

  

  No. All work for the Ph.D. must be done as a Princeton student. Work done previously at another institution may help you complete our program faster, but you will not be given credit for work done prior to your admission to Princeton.

• Can I start in the spring term?

  

  No, admission to Princeton is for fall only. Application materials are available starting in September of each year for admission in fall of the next year.

• Is the GRE general exam required?

  

  We are no longer either requiring or accepting GRE general exam scores.
