How to Apply

The MCP program will consider students with a bachelor's degree or higher in a science field, and a cumulative GPA above 3.0. International students from countries where English is not the primary language of instruction must demonstrate proficiency by submitting a TOEFL exam score. We do not require a GRE score.

A primary criterion for admission is the quantity and quality of basic research experience. The personal statement should include a well-developed description of the applicant's research experience. Applications to the Ph.D. program are submitted online at WSU Graduate Application website. The following documents are submitted by uploading directly to the application website.
