We do not accept WES or any other third-party evaluation service as official transcripts. If an applicant submits a WES evaluation, we will view those documents as unofficial scans, and the applicant will be required to provide official transcripts should they enroll in the Data Science Program.
Curriculum Vitae:
Upload your résumé/CV as a PDF with your online application. Résumés/CV's can be submitted only once.
Personal Statement:
Upload your Statement of Purpose as a PDF with your online application. Please be sure to note at the top of your statement: M.S. in Data Science - Personal Statement. Your statement can be submitted only once. It should be a minimum of 500 words and clearly explain your background in a relevant undergraduate or graduate major and the reasons you wish to pursue the degree. Please be concise, authentic, and sincere - your statement will be evaluated by the Data Science Program Curriculum Committee for anticipated success, as well as preparation and fit. Please indicate if you seek to begin the program as an online or as a residential student, and if you plan to explore the hybrid (part online/part residential) option in the future.
Recommendation Letter:
We require three (3) letters of recommendation. Recommendations should be from academic and/or professional references who can attest to your abilities, accomplishments, strengths, knowledge, and experience. If you have experience as a teaching assistant, you may want to consider asking your teaching supervisor to write a recommendation on your behalf.
