Application Information

The Admission Committee considers applications for admission to the Ph.D. Graduate Program in January.  At that time, financial aid is considered for both new applicants and continuing students.  The deadline for application materials is January 15. (For international applicants, it is December 1.)

U.S. domestic residents (including those educated abroad) submit a domestic application to the Department of Philosophy. Domestic residents educated outside of the United States, however, also need to complete a Supplemental Application for Admission, available from the Department office. The deadline for applications is January 15. International students submit a special International Application for Admission, along with transcripts, reference letters, GRE scores, and TOEFL scores with the Office of International Admissions by December 1. International student applicants may send sample papers and statements of purpose directly to the Department.

Application forms for on-line application, and downloadable forms to print out for paper applications, can be obtained from University Graduate School, by clicking here.

Since the Admission Committee exists for only a short time during the spring semester, it does not consider applications at other times during the year.  Applications that arrive after the January 15 deadline, and applications that arrive during the summer or the fall semester, will be considered the following spring.

We do not accept applications to our M.A. Program, with the exception of those currently enrolled in another graduate program at Indiana University Bloomington who wish to obtain the M.A. in Philosophy.  We do award M.A. degrees to those of our Ph.D. students who qualify for them and apply.
