Application Instructions
for Graduate Studies in Social Psychology

The admissions cycle is now closed for entrance in Fall, 2008.

If you wish to apply for admission during the 2009-2010 academic year, the deadline is December 15th, 2008. Contact the division head of the graduate program if you wish to apply but cannot meet this deadline.

It is strongly recommended that you apply using the electronic format rather than the entirely-paper version.

The application process is competitive: The admissions committee considers applicants’ official GRE scores (Verbal,Quantitative, Analytical, advanced test in psychology), official transcripts, your personal letter of application (2-4 pages; your statement should discuss which faculty member or members you would most like to work and why), letters of recommendation, and any additional materials you wish to include (e.g., vita, research papers, journal articles, etc.).

It is recommended that prospective applicants contact present faculty members in order to obtain more information (e.g., to inquire whether that faculty member is seeking new students for the following fall.).

The University of Connecticut encourages applications from under-represented groups, including minorities, women, and people with disabilities.

Application Forms. You can apply on-line here (preferred) or download an application here.

Other help. Help for prospective graduate students is available here.
