Please include your official transcripts, personal statement, three letters of recommendation, GRE test scores, and writing sample. Personal Statement: This essay gives the English Department’s Admissions Committee some idea of the applicant’s writing style, range and depth of ideas, quality of mind, and motivation to embark on an advanced degree program in English and American Literature. Please download our personal statement cover sheet and include it with your essay in the online application system. Please be sure your proposed field of concentration is showing on the top line of your personal statement. Recommendation Letter: Three letters of recommendation are required.

We suggest contacting your professors several months before our application deadline. Please have recommendation letters submitted directly through the Graduate School’s application website. Please do not send recommendations by Interfolio. Writing Sample: A writing sample is required for both the MA and the PhD application. The Graduate Admissions Committee would like to see a researched critical paper.
