And the Admissions Cycle Rolls On

I want to post an update on the PhD admissions process. We are no longer accepting new applications for the PhD in Management and the PhD in Marketing. After Friday, January 30, we will no longer be accepting new applications for PhD Economics. For the other three PhD programs: Accounting, Finance, and Information Systems, we will continue to accept late applications until the program coordinators notify us to stop.

All DDF (Distinguished Doctoral Fellowship) nominations are due next Monday, February 2. The DDF is worth $37,000 annually. To be nominated for the DDF, you must have submitted your completed PhD application by January 15. Criteria for the DDF are 650 GMAT, 1300 GRE, 3.75 master's GPA, and a writing score of 5.

The DAF (Doctoral Academy Fellowship) has no deadline. Nominations are accepted until the money is gone. This award is worth $27,000 annually and criteria are 600 GMAT, 1200 GRE, 3.5 master's GPA, and a writing score of 5.

Master of Information Systems and Master of Arts in Economics applications are due next Monday, February 2.

On another note, Dave Alderson is working on our new website. I owe him some text so I guess I had better get on it. Keep a lookout for the website.
