Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • A recognised bachelor's degree equivalent to a US degree and a 3.0 GPA are required.
  • Submit transcripts, personal statement and résumé; GRE/GMAT is optional on the programme page.
  • Prior statistics and programming preparation is assessed; foundation courses may be needed before core study.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • Graduate direct entry lists IELTS 6.5 with no subscore below 6.0, or an approved equivalent.
  • Use results within two years of enrolment under the dedicated international policy; conditional English admission and approved exemptions are separate decisions.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • Fall and spring.
  • The full-time curriculum includes study beyond the two main semesters, so confirm the individual completion plan.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • The Data Science programme currently uses rolling admission rather than an explicitly dated final cutoff.
  • The general graduate FAQ also gives preferred fall/spring dates but retains older-cycle material; a current international final deadline was not established.
  • Apply early and confirm the intended cohort's completion date before arranging travel.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • 2026/27 Caspersen tuition is US$1,510 per credit, including the January/summer tariff for this programme category.
  • Each semester adds US$500 general and US$75 international administration fees.
  • Deposits, insurance, housing, meals, books and any extra foundation courses are additional; do not treat 30-credit tuition alone as a complete cost of attendance.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • Master's applicants receive merit-scholarship consideration during admission without a separate application; any award is stated in the offer.
  • The advertised Drew Together Scholarship is restricted to US residents and excludes dual-degree students, so it should not be assumed available to an overseas applicant.
