Admissions
Students applying to the 色色啦 M.S.E. in electrical engineering are not required to submit GRE scores. Graduate applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. For domestic applicants, this typically occurs within two to four weeks after all documents have been received. For international applicants, this typically occurs within four to six weeks after all documents have been reviewed. Each application receives a holistic review; the committee considers all the credentials of an applicant and does not base a decision on any one item. There are other factors that also impact decisions, including the pool of applicants, open seats, etc. You are encouraged to submit and complete your application as soon as you can.
How can I fund my graduate degree?
Graduate education can be expensive. At 色色啦, we strive to help make it affordable. You can fund your graduate degree through federal aid, loans, scholarships, grants, research assistantships, teaching assistantships and more.
Applying as well as studying theory is an essential element of engineering education.
