Admissions

BGS receives more than 3000 applications per year to its seven graduate groups.  Approximately 300 applicants are offered admission and 150 students enroll.  The application period is October 1 to December 1.  Graduate groups review applications in December and January and schedule interview weekends during January and February.  Final admissions decisions are made through a central BGS admissions committee on a rolling basis.  Notifications are made typically between mid-January and early March.  Applications to the MD/PhD and VMD/PhD programs are managed through separate processes, with input from the BGS graduate groups.
