Transcript:
Request official transcript(s) from institutions you’ve attended, including Rutgers. Your institution(s) should send original, official transcripts, showing your degree awarded, to the appropriate graduate admissions office. If your institution is a sending member of Parchment, eScrip-Safe, or National Student Clearinghouse, Rutgers will be able to receive your official transcripts electronically. We also accept electronic transcripts from India sent via TrueCopy Credentials. View address information for Graduate and Professional Admissions offices(http://gradstudy.rutgers.edu/about/contact-us).
If the official copy of your transcript will be delayed past the program deadline, consider uploading an unofficial, scanned copy of your transcripts.
Personal Statement:
Include research interests and faculty member you are interested in working with.
Recommendation Letter:
Letters of recommendation (3): Fill in your recommenders' email addresses carefully so that they can receive your request and submit your recommendation without delay. Please refer to http://gradstudy.rutgers.edu/apply/before-you-apply for more information.
Writing Sample:
You need to submit a separate writing sample. These samples may include an undergraduate honors thesis, a paper that you wrote for a class, a published article, or any other piece of written work that you believe demonstrates your skills as a writer and critical thinker. Ideally, the content of the writing sample should in some way relate to your proposed graduate research topic. Most writing samples average between 10 and 20 pages in length.
