How to Apply


Timetable

Applications and support documentation for admission in the Fall of 2010 will be due by December 1, 2009.

Please make sure that all application materials are received before the deadline for applying, including transcripts, letters of recommendation and test scores. We sometimes need to contact applicants if some information is missing, so please include a working e-mail address, but remember that it is your responsibility to make sure that your application is complete and received by the deadline of December 1.

Applicants will receive a response from us by March 1. Due to the large number of candidates, it is not possible for us to inform applicants if their applications are incomplete, or give other information during the review process. Please be patient and wait until March 1 for a response from us.

Admitted students will need to respond by April 15. On-campus housing will be guaranteed only to students whose completed housing application has been received by the University by the reply deadline of April 15.


Required Testing and Forms

Application forms (online only) are available from the Graduate School Admissions website. You must apply online.

Please include a curriculum vitae,  personal statement and undergraduate/graduate transcripts as part of your application.

The GRE or GMAT is required. 

If your native language is not English and you have not completed your undergraduate studies in an English-speaking country, you are also required to take either the TOEFL or IELTS exam.  

GRE or GMAT scores must be less than five years old, TOEFL or IELTS scores less than two years old as of Dec. 1.

Please plan to take the tests in plenty of time for the official scores to be received by the admissions office. When you register for the tests, you must specify that your scores be sent to the Princeton University Office of Graduate Admission (2672 for the GRE, WC1-L5-59 for the GMAT).


Application FAQ

The application fee is $70 online. Applications are not accepted in hard copy form. 
 

Questions? Refer to our master of finance FAQ and Graduate School website.


In previous years, we had two separate application deadlines: one for applicants who resided in the United States, Canada or Mexico and one for those who did not. This is no longer the case; all applications are due by December 1, irrespective of the applicant's residence.
