Welcome Prospective Graduate Students:
Graduate School Inquiry


This inquiry form is an opportunity for potential graduate student applicants to receive feedback about a potential match in the Graduate Program in the Department of Earth Sciences. With this information we can tell you about specific opportunities for collaboration with a potential graduate advisor in your area of interest, and financial support available within our department. This is not an official application to graduate school. For the official application to graduate school, begin here.

Instructions:

  1. Please complete the form, below.
  2. The information that you supply will permit faculty to provide specific information on their research programs as they relate to your interests.
  3. When you’ve finished, hit the 'Submit' button.
  4. You should receive a reply within 72 hours from a Geology faculty member.

The suggested submission date for the formal graduate school application is January 15th.  Submission in mid-January maximizes the prospective student's opportunity to receive financial aid. However, the Geology Department will consider applications for admission throughout the year.  If you submit your application sometime other than mid-January, contact the graduate advisor about existing funding opportunities. Please realized the form below is only an inquiry, NOT the formal application form.

We look forward to hearing from you!
