Qualification Requirements
The normal requirement for admission to the Ph.D. program is a master's degree (or the equivalent) in anthropology, normally with a minimum average of A-, and with no grade below B. Applicants whose academic preparation has deficiencies in certain areas may be admitted to the Ph.D. program, but will normally be required to complete additional course work.
Applications for the M.A. and Ph.D. require the same components. These are as follows:
A statement of academic/research interests and ambitions (1-2 pages in length),
English-language test scores (if applicable),
Sample of written work,
Two referee appraisal forms and letters of reference (to be uploaded by referees), and
One transcript (unofficial can be uploaded by student official transcripts can be mailed to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs and only required if offer is made).
Applicants statements of interest should provide a clear and focused description of their research interests and why they wish to enroll in the program. A strong research statement elaborates, as clearly as possible, a particular thesis research project the student wishes to carry out, ideally by proposing particular research questions and citing relevant academic literature. The sample of written work should have been completed in the most recent degree program and can be a term paper, thesis proposal, or published work.
IELTS - Overall 6.5 (minimum 6.0 in each band).
TOEFL iBT - 86 (20 in reading and listening, 22 in speaking and writing)
TOEFL PBT - overall score of 580.
