Transcript: Copies of all relevant official transcripts from all university/college level institutions attended (this requirement applies to both domestic and international applicants) must be submitted/uploaded with your on-line Graduate Application for Admissions and Fellowships. Transcripts in a language other than English must be accompanied by official English translations, as described in the "International Applicants" section of the Graduate Division's Admissions Requirements (link is external). Note: Submission of official/sealed transcripts will only be required if you are admitted to the program and you accept the offer of admission. Personal Statement: The statement of purpose should convince readers– the faculty on the selection committee– that you have solid achievements behind you that show promise for your success in graduate study. Think of the statement of purpose as a composition with four different parts. Recommendation Letter: Three letters of recommendation are required. You will be asked to submit the names of your recommenders and valid email addresses as part of the on-line application. The admissions system will contact them directly, and you will be able to check whether their letters have been added to the application. Please give your recommenders plenty of advanced notification for submitting their letters so that they may be submitted by the deadline. Writing Sample: A writing sample is required of all applicants. Ideally, this sample would be a research paper on a linguistic topic, but it should in any event demonstrate the applicant's competence in writing analytic expository prose. The writing sample is to be submitted/uploaded with your on-line application. Personal Statement: The personal statement should give concrete evidence of your promise as a member of the academic community, giving the committee an image of you as a person.This is also where you represent your potential to bring to your academic career a critical perspective rooted in a non-traditional educational background, or your understanding of the experiences of groups historically under-represented in higher education and your commitment to increase participation by a diverse population in higher education.
