Graduate Record Examination (GRE) – Not required
S.M./Ph.D. students are generally supported by a variety of fellowships, research assistantships, and teaching assistantships during their time at MIT. These appointments pay tuition, a competitive stipend, and health insurance. Students are encouraged to apply for outside fellowships to help finance their graduate studies. Some domestic students are supported by NSF, NDSEG, Hertz, and Whitaker fellowships, as well as other government and corporate sources. Some international students are supported by their government or a scholarship agency (e.g., Samsung scholarship, ILJU, Royal Thai government, Kwanjeong Scholarship, Canadian NSERC).
The department is suspending the GRE requirement for this year’s application cycle for Fall 2024 admissions and will neither require nor accept GRE scores as supplementary material.
Applicants interested in an interdisciplinary program (e.g., PPSM, TPP) should also check with that particular program for additional requirements.
