Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy

Entry requirements for 康乃爾大學

A baccalaureate degree from a college or university of recognized standing.
Admission to the Public Policy PhD program is based on academic merit, research potential, and fit with the topical strengths of the public policy graduate field. The Public Policy Admissions Committee, comprised of a rotating set of faculty members that span different disciplines and subfields, takes a holistic approach to graduate admissions ? one that considers academic records and test scores as only one part of a broader application that includes letters of recommendation, writing samples, personal accomplishments, and prior research and professional experiences. It helps if you have a background in public policy or related social science disciplines such as economics, political science, and sociology as well as research methods. We typically matriculate 6-7 students per cohort, allowing for a personalized and close-knit graduate experience.
Statement of Purpose. Use your statement of purpose to describe why you are interested in pursuing a Ph.D. in Public Policy. Effective statements typically include information about prior academic preparation, research experiences and skills, and personal and professional accomplishments.
Transcripts. Scan all transcripts and save as a single pdf file, then upload into the online application. If there are any aspects of your transcripts that you wish to address, please feel free to do so in your personal statements or letters of recommendation.
Letters of Recommendation. Two letters of recommendation are required. Recommenders need to upload their letters into the online application.
Writing Sample. A writing sample illustrative of your independent research. If the writing sample is co-authored, your specific contributions should be clarified.
