Graduate Students |

The University of Washington Math Department
welcomes
visiting graduate students from other universities. Students can
be accepted into this status only if they are in good standing and actively
pursuing a graduate degree at another accredited academic institution,
and plan to transfer a limited number of credits back to their home institution.
See the UW Graduate School Web page on Visiting
Graduate Students for more information.
The application procedure for Visiting Graduate
Student status is somewhat different from applying as a regular graduate student.

to mail anything to the Mathematics Department; instead, everything is to be
sent directly to the Office of Graduate Admissions. It
is not necessary to submit GRE scores, letters of recommendation, or the Math
Department application form.
Deadlines
Ordinarily,
visiting graduate students, like regular graduate students, should begin
in Autumn Quarter. The application deadline for those not requesting financial
support is July 1; if you request financial support,
the deadline is January 15. (Be aware, however, that financial
support is seldom available to visiting grad students.)
In special
circumstances, visiting graduate applicants may be accepted to begin in quarters
other than Autumn. The deadlines for other quarters are as follows:
Winter
Quarter - November 1
Spring Quarter - February 1
Summer Quarter - May 15
