Admissions Decisions

Candidates are notified of admission decisions via email as soon as they are reached, which is on or before April 15.

We begin reviewing your application only after your application is complete, i.e., we have received your online application and all supporting materials. Due to the large volume of applications we receive, we are only able to consider applicants who comply with the December 15 deadline.

Your application will be reviewed by the PhD coordinator and the admission committee of the program you are applying to, with final approval of all admitted applicants given by the Vice Dean of the Wharton Doctoral Programs.

Please see the “Resolution Regarding Graduate Scholars, Fellows, Trainees, and Assistants” for additional information on the Wharton Doctoral Programs notification deadline policy.
