Students can be accepted into the program in September (Fall semester), January (Winter semester), or May (Summer semester), however students are strongly encouraged to apply for admission in the Fall Semester. Many funding opportunities such as differential fee waivers are only available to students entering the program in September, and the flow of coursework is designed to begin at that time.
