As a necessary condition to be admitted to the Mathematics Graduate Program with Full Standing, and applicant must meet the following minimum requirements:

1. successful completion (at least a "C" or better) or at least one semester-long undergraduate course in abstract algebra (MATH 4010 or equivalent)
2. successful completion (at least a "C" or better) of at least one semester-long undergraduate course in real analysis (MATH 4110 or equivalent)
3. an overall undergraduate QPA of at least 2.5 (based on a 4.0 scale)
4. at least 3 letters of recommendation each indicating an expectation for success in a graduate mathematics program
5. (international students only) a TOEFL score of at least 550 or an IELTS score of at least 6.0 or the attainment of level 9 in the FLS international Intensive ESL program
6. Demonstrated potential for success in a graduate mathematics program by attaining at least one of the following:
   1. an overall undergraduate mathematics QPA of at least 3.5 (based on a 4.0 scale);
   2. at least a 140 verbal score, 150 quantitative score, and 3.0 analytical writing score on the GRE General Examination
   3. at least a 700 on the GRE Subject Test in Mathematics

It should be understood that fulfilling the above minimum requirements is not sufficient to guarantee that an applicant will be admitted with full standing. A student may be admitted to the Mathematics Graduate Program with Provisional Standing if one or more of the above requirements are not met, assuming that the student has an overall undergraduate QPA of at least 2.25 (based on a 4.0 scale) and at least 3 letters of recommendation each indicating and expectation for success in a graduate mathematics program. Recommendations for admission (with Full or Provisional Standing) are made by the Mathematics Department Chairperson in consultation with the Mathematics Graduate Committee based upon an analysis of the applicant's mathematical background and potential for success in the Mathematics Graduate Program. As student in Provisional Standing may be reclassified to Full Standing once the student has satisfied the appropriate requirements detailed in the admission letter.

For the sake of evaluation for an assistantship, applicants are highly encouraged to take both the GRE General Examination and the GRE Subject Test in Mathematics and submit their scores with the application.
