Technical Problems Submitting Your Application

If you are having problems submitting your application, paying the application fee, etc., then you should contact the Graduate School (graduate_applications@ncsu.edu).  The Financial Math Program does not manage the submission software -- we only verify that all materials have been provided.

Application Deadlines

Even if you miss the full consideration deadline, you are welcome to apply.  The NCSU deadline for international students allows processing of student visa applications.  Some students may be able to get a visa, despite missing the deadline.

We will consider applications, even after the deadline, but we cannot guarantee the completion of the admission process if the deadline is missed.

Admission Decision Inquiries

Here is the application process:

Step 1.  File an application online at the ApplyYourself website.  If there are any missing materials, candidates are notified via the email address in the application of the deficiency. 

Step 2.  Early in February, representatives of the program make a recommendation regarding admission to the graduate school. 

Step 3.  Applicants are notified via the ApplyYourself portal and via the email address in their application.

Inquiries into the status of your application interrupt the process, and can only have a negative impact on your chance of admission.

3yr bachelor's degree is acceptable

Q: Is a 3 year bachelors (BS) degree acceptable for admission to the MFM program?

A: yes -- any BS degree can be used to satisfy the admissions requirement.  A 3-year degree is acceptable.

Pre-screening applications

We do not prescreen applications.  If you wish to be considered for admission to the  program, apply using the link at the "Requirements" webpage.  All your application materials should be sent through the web portal.  Please do not email us your credentials.  The  only way to have your application screened is by submitting an application using the link provided.

RSS Feed

This blog provides a way to track posts, very similar to the way you monitor email.  A brief explanation  about how to use RSS feeds is provided at www4.ncsu.edu/~scroggs/mywebsite/RSSfeeds.pdf.

GRE Subject Test

The GRE subject test is not required.  This, and other information about the requirements can be discovered using the 'search' box at the bottom of the website.
