Admissions Process and Admission Criteria Applied Mathematics and Statistics
College description: The Applied Mathematics and Statistics is devoted to the study and development of mathematical disciplines especially oriented to the complex problems of modern society. Probability and Statistics is treated in the curriculum as a single general area, dealing in a unified way with theory and methodology for probabilistic representation of chance phenomena, applications of stochastic modeling to physical and social sciences, formulation of statistical models, fitting of statistical models to data, and interpretation of data. Operations Research and Optimization represents a second general area, dealing in unified fashion with the application of optimization theory, mathematical programming, computer modeling, stochastic modeling, and game theory to planning and policy problems such as scheduling, allocation of resources, and facility location. The fourth general area, Computational and Applied Mathematics, covers topics pertaining to computing, numerical analysis, advanced matrix analysis, and mathematical modeling.
Arrange for scores on the GRE General and GRE Advanced Test in Mathematics to be sent to the department by the Educational Testing Service. Applicants are encouraged to take the GRE as early as possible during the academic year preceding entrance. Please note that the GRE Advanced Test in Mathematics is recommended, but is not required. The Johns Hopkins University does not accept the GMAT in lieu of GRE scores.
Admissions decisions are based on four major factors: Mathematical course background, grades, Graduate Record Examination scores, and recommendation letters.
Handbook for Graduate Students in Mathematics
College description: The Accelerated Masters Program (AMP) in Mathematics is designed so that students with a strong ability and motivation can complete a bachelors degree in mathematics, science, or engineering, as well as a masters degree in mathematics within five years. During the fifth year students take courses that complete the requirements for the Master of Science degree in mathematics. In planning your schedule to meet the requirements of the AMP program, you may wish to consult the Course Schedule Planner to find out which semesters years MATH courses usually run.
Students must maintain a 3.0 GPA.
Students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA.
Completion of Math 21, 22, 52, 121, and 124 with an overall GPA of 3.0 or higher,.
Satisfactory performance on the general GRE exam .
This course may not be counted towards the student degree or GPA, and so must be taken as an overload.
Frequently Asked Questions
College description: The M.A. degree program is a flexible program which may be designed to prepare for entry into the job market or for further study in a variety of fields such as mathematics, statistics, computer science, applied mathematics, operations research, economics or finance. Formal programs are offered in pure mathematics, statistics, and scientific computation. Programs of study are based on a required core area supplemented by a combination of elective course work in mathematics, statistics or scientific computation. A two-semester sequence in Algebra (MATH 6 0-6340) and a two-semester sequence in Analysis (MATH 6650-6660) .
The university review applications holistically, looking at previous courses taken, grades, letters of recommendation, GRE scores, and TOEFL IELTS scores for certain international students.
Applicant will need to have GRE General Test scores sent to BGSU.
Master 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale Ph.D. 3.2 GPA on a 4.0 scale.
Applicants are required to take the GRE General Test.
Most funded students have an aggregate GRE score of 300, but higher is always better.
Applied Statistics Admission
College description: Intermediate Algebra (MATH 100) begins the sequence and has no prerequisite. Incoming first-year students: You are placed into a math course based on your math ACT SAT subscore or AP Calculus result. Incoming transfer students: Refer to your Student Portal to review whether you need to take the MPA (Math Placement Assessment).
The General Test of the Graduate Record Examination is required for admission.

Mathematics Statistics
College description: degrees in both mathematics and statistics as well as M.S. The applied mathematics and analysis professors and, in particular, my advisor Panos Kevrekidis made those five years at UMass both enjoyable and productive. After visiting other graduate programs in the US, I appreciate even the small size of the graduate program and the attention graduate students were receiving at the UMass program.
The application fee cannot be waived, except for the students.S. citizens and permanent residents who qualify for a waiver of the GRE fee.
The general GRE is strongly recommended for all applicants, but it is not required. The mathematics subject GRE is required only for applicants to the Mathematics Ph.D. program The only required GRE is the mathematics subject GRE and that exam is a requirement only for applicants to the Mathematics Ph.D. program who are not specializing in Statistics.
The University of Massachusetts-Amherst accept the GRE and TOEFL in whatever form they are administered.
Mathematics, Statistics Concentration, B.A.
College description: Mathematics Education is also a strong component of the department. The department offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in mathematics, M.S. degrees in mathematics, and Doctoral degrees with concentrations in applied mathematics and statistics. Additionally, the department also offers M.S. degrees in Mathematical Finance jointly with the Departments of Finance and Economics in the Belk College of Business Administration.
Students who are in good standing with the University, have a minimum overall GPA of 2.5, and have completed 30 credit hours are eligible to .
An overall GPA of at least 2.0 and a GPA of at least 2.0 in all math courses is required.
