FOREIGN APPLICANTS

Thank you for your interest in the UMDNJ-Graduate
School of Biomedical Sciences. Unfortunately, the
widespread use of e-mail has dramatically increased
the number of requests for information and applications.
As a small school, it has become prohibitively expensive
to send application packages overseas.
Please note that an application for admission
and general information regarding our programs
and research opportunities is available on this
web site. Please feel free to contact us if you
have any specific questions.
As an additional resource for foreign students, UMDNJ provides the Office of International Services.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO FOREIGN
APPLICANTS
The UMDNJ-Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences
receives about 1500 applications annually from foreign
countries. Since our entering class consists of
only about 6-8 students each year, competition for
these places forces us to be highly selective in
our admission criteria. Therefore, we are unlikely
to admit foreign applicants with verbal and math
scores of less than 450 and 650, respectively, on
the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), and less
than 200 (paper test), 550 (computer test) on the TOEFL. In addition, we look for
a demonstration of interest and experience in basic
research, especially in areas that compliment the
research interests of our faculty.
If you wish to apply for admission, submit a
completed application and arrange for the required
documents to be forwarded to the Graduate School.
Please note that the $40 application fee must
be received before your application will be considered.
We cannot preview your credentials or indicate
the likelihood of acceptance prior to receipt
of the application fee.
If you will receive your Baccalaureate degree
later than June, do not apply for the coming fall
semester. No visa form will be sent until you
have been accepted by the Graduate School and
we receive evidence that the degree has been awarded.
The application fee is NOT REFUNDABLE. Consider
your credentials carefully before applying.
