Graduate Admissions

Students seeking admission into our Master’s and PhD programs must demonstrate a “B” or above average from an accredited college or university. Please see below for general Stevens’ admissions requirements. However, please note that each program may also have individual pre-requisites for admissions. Therefore, please visit the individual program pages to see additional requirements.

Master’s Degree Requirements

• Application form and $60 non-refundable fee
• Two letters of recommendation
• Official transcripts from all institutions attended. Transcripts must be submitted in sealed envelopes. If official documents are unavailable, unofficial documents can be used for initial review temporarily; however, applicants will not be fully admitted until all official documents have been received.
• Resume/CV
• Personal statement
• GRE/GMAT – See if your program requires it (Code #2819) – All scores are only valid for five years prior to the application

Note:

-Some departments may require additional material
-Applicants may also consider enrolling right away as a non-matriculated student. This will allow you to take up to three courses that may count towards a four-course certificate or a master’s degree.

To apply to Stevens, please visit Graduate Admissions for additional information.

Additional Requirements for International Applicants

International students for whom English is a second language need a TOEFL score of 550 (213 for computer-based, 80 for internet-based) to be considered for admission to the graduate program. The subsections of the TOEFL (Reading, Listening, Verbal and Writing) are evaluated by the English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) coordinator and if a weakness in proficiency is detected in any of the subsections, the student will be placed upon arrival in an appropriate English course offered by the College of Arts and Letters at Stevens. Following completion of the course(s), the student must pass a post-test in order to be exempt from future language courses. Satisfaction of the language skills requirement must occur within the first year of study at Stevens. International students are also required to submit GMAT (or GRE) test scores.

Please send all documents to:

Stevens Institute of Technology
Office of Graduate Admissions,
Castle Point on Hudson, Howe Center, 12th Floor

All matters pertaining to Admission, and/or the submission of documentation is handled through the Office of the Graduate Admissions.
