TEST SCORE ACCOMMODATIONS DURING THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK

Due to the impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) on testing centers around the world, Stevens has made the following accommodations available to all students for the Spring 2022 intake:

English Language Proficiency Requirement: Affected applicants may submit Duolingo English Test (DET) results or the TOEFL iBT® Special Home Edition test.
GRE/GMAT: Stevens Institute of Technology will be adopting a GRE/GMAT test optional for the Spring 2022 intake for all master’s program applicants. If submitted, GRE/GMAT scores will be taken into consideration for admissions decisions. Submitting a test score is an opportunity for applicants to present additional evidence of their quantitative and verbal skills. We encourage those students who have taken the test to consider submitting scores. For PhD applicants: The GRE/GMAT is currently a requirement and for those who seek accommodation due to the pandemic, approval from the respective academic department is required.
