icon For International Students

The application process is web-based. Apply on-line at https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=sunysb-gs. Domestic students who apply online will receive an automatic fee waiver.

As part of the application process you will need to provide:

  1.  Two copies of official transcripts of undergraduate and (if applicable) graduate course work.
  2.  Official Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores (Stony Brook’s code for score reporting is 2548)
  3.  Three letters of recommendation.  If recommendations are not submitted online, please provide two original copies of each recommendation.

Please mail all supplemental materials to: Graduate Admissions, Department of Chemistry, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY 11794-3400

Although we will consider an application file at any time and we do not have a deadline, it can be to your advantage to apply by February 1 if you wish to begin your studies in the fall. Support is provided through teaching and research assistantships and industrial, university and departmental fellowships. For the 2009-2010 academic year, the stipend is $24,000 a year (plus subsidized health insurance and a full tuition scholarship).

Earlier applications are encouraged, particularly for those wishing to be considered in the campus-wide competition for Graduate Council Fellowships.
