Rolling Admission Cycle
The sooner that we receive your completed application, the sooner we can inform you of your acceptance status. We strongly encourage you to apply long before the application deadline, as space becomes limited closer to the application deadline.
- Please Note: Our Admissions Committee requests that candidates who have been offered admission submit their formal decision (accept, defer, or decline) within 3 weeks of the offer date. This acceptance deadline may differ from what is posted on UCSD Graduate Division’s admissions page.
- Please Note: a mandatory admissions acceptance deposit of $1,000 is required to be paid by any incoming student who accepts the offer of admission into DDPM. This deposit fee amount will count toward the student's Fall quarterly fees.
