2024 Yale Graduate School Wilbur Cross Medalists (L to R): James Scott (’67 PhD, Political Science), Anne Ferguson-Smith (’86 PhD, Biology), John Guillory (’79 PhD, English Language and Literature), and Kai Li (’86 PhD, Computer Science)
Four alumni of the Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS) will be honored with Wilbur Cross Medals in recognition of their exceptional scholarship, teaching, and public service. The awards are the highest honor the school bestows on alumni.
One of the medals, to longtime Yale professor James Scott (’67 PhD, Political Science), is being awarded posthumously. Scott, a pioneering social scientist who founded and was director of Yale’s Program in Agrarian Studies, died on July 19 but had learned before his death that he was being honored.
The other medal recipients are Anne Ferguson-Smith (’86 PhD, Biology) a renowned geneticist and the Arthur Balfour Professor of Genetics at the University of Cambridge; John Guillory (’79 PhD, English Language and Literature) a scholar of Renaissance literature and the Julius Silver Professor of English Emeritus at New York University; and Kai Li (’86 PhD, Computer Science) a groundbreaking computer scientist and the Paul M. Wythes ’55, P’86 and Marcia R. Wythes P’86 Professor at Princeton University.
Ferguson-Smith, Guillory, and Li will return to Yale for a series of campus events and to deliver public lectures. Nancy Lee Peluso, a professor in the University of California-Berkeley’s Graduate School in Society & Environment, and Ian Shapiro (’83 PhD, Political Science; ’87 JD), Sterling Professor of Political Science and Global Affairs at Yale, will deliver a lecture in honor of James Scott, whose life and contributions also will be celebrated at a gathering on October 7, 11 am-2:30 pm at the Yale Farm, 345 Edwards St. All are welcome; register at https://tinyurl.com/gatheringforjimscott .
The Wilbur Cross Medals celebrate the legacy of service and achievements of Wilbur Lucius Cross (1889 PhD, English Literature), who served as dean of the Graduate School from 1916 to 1930 and was Connecticut’s governor from 1930 to 1939. Awarded annually by the GSAS Alumni Association, the medals are presented for exceptional scholarship, public service, teaching, or academic administration.
Short profiles of this year’s honorees follow, as well as the titles, times and locations of their lectures, which are free and open to the public.
Anne Ferguson-Smith is a developmental geneticist, genome biologist, and epigeneticist who is a world expert on mammalian development and genetic imprinting. She leads a research group of experimental and computational scientists whose work focuses on the epigenetic control of genome function, particularly the implications of epigenetic inheritance for health and disease. She also investigates how genetic and environmental factors influence development and health within and across generations.
At the University of Cambridge, Ferguson-Smith has served as pro-vice-chancellor for research and international partnerships and as head of the Department of Genetics. She has been president of the UK Genetics Society since 2021, and in the same year was named executive chair of the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council. Her biomedical contributions have been recognized with election as a fellow of the Royal Society, from which she received the Buchanan Medal in 2021. In 2023 she was named Commander of the British Empire.
Ferguson-Smith’s lecture, “Epigenetic Inheritance - Models and Mechanisms,” will take place on October 7 at 4 pm in the O.C. Marsh Lecture Hall of the Yale Science Building, 260 Whitney Ave.
John Guillory has focused his work on Renaissance literature, the history of literary study, the history of rhetoric, and the early history of media studies, especially the work of I.A. Richards, Marshall McLuhan, and Walter Ong. He is the author of Poetic Authority: Spenser, Milton, and Literary History , Cultural Capital: The Problem of Literary Canon Formation , and the upcoming On Close Reading , which will be published next year by the University of Chicago Press, among other works. In addition, he has written numerous essays exploring issues of literary study and criticism, general education, and rhetoric, as well as such literary figures as Milton, Shakespeare, Marlowe, Bacon, and others. He is currently at work on a book entitled Freedom of Thought: Philosophy and Literature in the English Renaissance .
Guillory’s honors include the René Wellek Prize of the American Comparative Literature Association, the Francis Andrew March Award of the Association of Departments of English for Distinguished Service to the Profession of English Studies, and the Golden Dozen Teaching Award at New York University.
Guillory will speak on the topic “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know: On the Concept of Social Capital” on October 7 at 3:30 pm in Room L02 of the Humanities Quadrangle, 320 York St.
Kai Li has made significant contributions in several areas of computer systems.
His dissertation pioneered a shared virtual memory system that allowed users to store shared data across a network of computers without physically shared memory. He also led the development of a user-level communication mechanism for such environments, a key idea that became the foundation to the industry standard Infiniband that is now deployed in most hyperscale data centers.
Li also led the development of data deduplication and cofounded Data Domain Inc., which revolutionized storage systems for efficient backup and disaster recovery. He was the co-principal investigator of ImageNet, which propelled deep learning to the forefront of machine learning and sparked what many call the “deep learning revolution.”
Li, who grew up in Chanchun, China, was one of the first group of students to come to the US from China for PhD studies after the Cultural Revolution. He is a fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering.
Li will lecture on “The Transformative Power of Education: From Factory Floors in China to Academic and Entrepreneurial Success in the U.S." on October 7 at 3:30 pm in Rosenfeld Hall, 109 Grove Street.
James Scott was Sterling Professor Emeritus of Political Science and professor emeritus of anthropology at Yale, and held an appointment in environmental studies. He was a member of the faculty from 1976 until his retirement in 2021. Scott’s scholarship spanned multiple disciplines and subjects, focusing on such topics as peasant resistance, top-down state social planning, anarchism, state violence, and Southeast Asia studies. His 10 books include The Moral Economy of the Peasant , Seeing Like a State , The Art of Not Being Governed , Two Cheers for Anarchism , Against the Grain , and Weapons of the Weak: Everyday Forms of Peasant Resistance . His final book, In Praise of Floods: The Untamed River and the Life it Brings , will be published by Yale University Press in 2025.
Scott conducted fieldwork in Malaysia, Burma, Africa, and elsewhere. Toward the end of his life, he was especially interested in the revolution in Burma. He was founder of the Independent Journal of Burmese Scholarship. The interdisciplinary Program in Agrarian Studies, which he founded at Yale in 1991, has been emulated by institutions around the world.
“James C. Scott: In a Field of His Own,” is the title of the lecture that will be delivered by Peluso and Shapiro on October 7 at 4 pm in the auditorium of Henry R. Luce Hall, 34 Hillhouse Ave.
Peluso teaches in the Department of Environmental Studies, Policy and Management at Berkeley and is an affiliate professor in the school’s geography and anthropology departments. She has conducted research in Java and Kalimantan, Indonesia, for over 40 years. She co-edited the books The Social Lives of Land , New Frontiers of Land Control , Taking Southeast Asia to Market: Commodities, People and Nature in a Neoliberal Age , Violent Environments , and Borneo in Transition: People, Forests, Conservation, and Development . Her first book, Rich Forests, Poor People: Resource Control and Resistance , will be updated in Indonesian in 2025. Peluso is vice president of the Association of Asian Scholars and will serve as the organization’s president in 2025-2026.
Shapiro has written widely on democracy, justice, and the methods of social inquiry. His most recent books are Politics Against Domination , Responsible Parties: Saving Democracy from Itself (with Frances Rosenbluth), The Wolf at the Door: The Menace of Economic Insecurity and How to Fight It (with Michael Graetz), and Uncommon Sense . His current research concerns the relations between democracy and the distribution of income, wealth, and risk. He served as the Henry R. Luce Director of the MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies 2004-2019.

INFORMATION FOR
Listen to, "the first ehr-based machine learning model for gi bleeding".
Acute gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is the most common GI diagnosis requiring hospitalization in the United States. Patients with acute GI bleeding either vomit up blood or have blood in their stool and must be evaluated in the hospital.
“When a patient arrives at the hospital with acute GI bleeding, physicians need to quickly figure out answers to three questions: Why is the patient bleeding? What supportive care can help them get through this episode of bleeding? How can I stop the bleeding long term?” said Dennis Shung, MD, PhD , assistant professor of medicine (digestive diseases, biomedical informatics and data science) and director of digital health (digestive diseases).
While all acute GI bleeding is abnormal, some patients are very low-risk and may not need to remain in the hospital. Current guidelines recommend physicians use clinical risk scores, like the Glasgow Blatchford Score (GBS) or the Oakland Score , to help determine which patients may need medical intervention, such as a blood transfusion or endoscopic procedure, and which patients may be safely discharged from the hospital.
“We don’t always know the location of the bleeding source,” said Loren Laine, MD , professor of medicine (digestive diseases) and chief of Yale Digestive Diseases. “Acute GI bleeding can stem from various causes, including ulcers, tumors, or inflammation anywhere throughout the GI tract. This limits the usefulness of the current clinical risk scores, which require the physician to know the location of the bleeding”.
Yale researchers are developing a machine-learning risk model that uses electronic health record (EHR) data to provide an initial patient assessment based on symptoms rather than where the bleeding is thought to be.
“Caring for patients in a hospital is complex and fast-paced. Physicians shouldn’t need to spend time punching in numbers that already exist within the EHR,” said Shung. “Our model extracts clinically relevant, structured data fields – like labs, medical history, medications, age, vital signs, and Glasgow Coma Scale scores – from the EHR to give a real-time risk assessment of each individual patient.”
In a new paper published in Gastroenterology , Shung, Laine, and colleagues evaluated the machine learning risk model against existing clinical risk scores to determine the most accurate approach. The study showed that the EHR-based machine learning model performs better than existing clinical risk scores and identifies more very low-risk patients who can safely leave the hospital.
“Many patients who are very low-risk do not want – or need – to remain in the hospital,” said Laine, co-senior author of the paper. “If we can quickly and more accurately identify very low-risk patients, we can reduce patient inconvenience and reduce health care costs – all without harm to the patient.”
The model outlined in the paper uses data fields from Epic, the most widely used EHR globally, which offers the potential for health systems across the world to tailor the data fields for their particular patient populations and unique needs.
The paper also found that while the machine learning algorithm performed better, both the GBS and Oakland scores performed well. Shung said this finding has led him and his team to consider designing a clinical decision support tool that shows the GBS score, Oakland score, and a machine learning score so that they can see three views on the patient.
“Machine learning systems are complex, and, at least for now, they may not have the trust that the other validated clinical risk scores do,” said Shung, who is the first author of the paper. “We don’t need to throw out the clinical risk scores, but we can build upon them and add new information to create better clinical decision support tools. This could be the future of risk stratification.”
Shung, alongside other Yale researchers, continues to investigate how doctors and medical students interact with artificial intelligence (AI) tools, including GutGPT , a generative AI that allows them to ask questions to treat hypothetical patients with GI bleeding.
“The lesson I take away from my research is that it’s not just about a technology and how it performs,” said Shung. “We’re human, and we all bring our own experiences to the human-computer interaction. We need to figure out how to integrate these advanced technologies into a human, complex care delivery system. It’s a socio-technical challenge. We're excited about exploring in all these different ways.”
“ Validation of an Electronic Health Record-Based Machine Learning Model Compared to Clinical Risk Scores for Gastrointestinal Bleeding ” was published in Gastroenterology . Other authors of the paper include Colleen Chan, PhD ; Kisung You, PhD; Neil S. Zheng, MD; Shinpei Nakamura; Theo Saarinen; Michael Simonov, MD , lecturer in biostatistics (health informatics); Darrick K. Li, MD, PhD , assistant clinical professor (digestive diseases); Cynthia Tsay, MD; Yuki Kawamura, MD, PhD , associate research scientist; Matthew Shen; Allen Hsiao, MD , professor of pediatrics (emergency medicine) and professor of emergency medicine; and Jasjeet Sekhon , Eugene Meyer Professor of Political Science and Professor of Statistics and Data Science (co-senior author).
Since forming one of the nation’s first sections of hepatology more than 75 years ago and then gastroenterology nearly 70 years ago, Yale School of Medicine’s Section of Digestive Diseases has had an enduring impact on research and clinical care in gastrointestinal and liver disorders.

PhD, Political Science
Welcome to my website. I am a Provost's Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania for the 2023-2024 academic year. Starting Fall 2024, I will be an Assistant Professor in the Political Science department at SUNY Binghamton . My research focuses on race, identity, and behavior in American politics. My dissertation project, "The Politics of Asian-ness: Understanding the Importance of National Origin and Group Membership on the Political Representation" focuses on Asian American political behavior and examines the conditions and context in which the pan-Asian identity is politically unifying, despite great variation in national origin backgrounds. Through a series of studies, which employ methodologies ranging from experimental design to observational analysis, I find that national origin identity is often more important than the pan-ethnic identity, but pan-Asian identity can nonetheless be activated and made salient in political contexts. I received my PhD in Political Science from Yale University in 2023, where I was affiliated with the Institution for Social and Policy Studies and the Center for the Study of American Politics. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2013 with a BA in Economics, Mathematics, and Theatre Arts, and from University College London (UCL) in 2014 with an MSc Economics.

The Department of Political Science does not embrace any particular philosophy or approach to the study of political science. We offer courses and research opportunities in a wide variety of fields in the discipline (see Research Areas below). Our principal goal is the training of scholars. The small size of our student body allows more individual work with members of the faculty than most graduate programs. It also makes possible financial assistance in one form or another to most students admitted to the Ph.D. program.
Our graduate program is built around small seminars that analyze critically the literature of a field or focus on a research problem. These courses prepare students for the Ph.D. comprehensive exam requirement within a two-year period and for work on the doctoral dissertation.
We offer a PhD in Political Science. The Department does not offer a master’s degree for external applicants. Only students currently enrolled in a PhD or professional school program at Stanford University may apply for a Master of Arts (MA) in Political Science.
The Ph.D. program is designed to be completed in five years of full-time study. Actual time depends on students' progress, research and travel requirements, and fields of study. The minimum residence requirement for the Ph.D. degree is 135 units of completed coursework, which takes approximately four years. The fifth year is typically spent writing the dissertation.
Requirements vary depending on which fields a student elects to study. The minimum residence requirement for the Ph.D. degree is 135 units of completed coursework, which takes approximately four years. The fifth year is typically spent writing the dissertation. All students must complete five units of graduate instruction in Political Theory unless previously taken as an undergraduate, and take a two-quarter sequence in quantitative methods. A language might also be required if the student and advisor think it appropriate for dissertation research. Beginning in their second year, students serve as teaching assistants in undergraduate courses for a minimum of three quarters, but most will serve as many as five quarters.
Students are required to satisfy the Ph.D. comprehensive examination requirements in one field as well as take coursework and fulfill any additional requirements in a second and third field and write at least one research paper. Upon completion of these three requirements, the student is eligible to be recommended for Ph.D. candidacy. It is expected that students will attain candidacy by the end of the second year. In their third year, students are asked to submit a formal dissertation proposal for approval. Doctoral candidates form a Dissertation Reading Committee in the fourth year and take the University Oral Examination after they have made substantial progress on their dissertations. Students must finish all requirements and file a thesis to receive their Ph.D. degree.
See the requirements page for more details.
Most students who receive doctorates in the program do research and teach at colleges or universities. In recent years, they have obtained positions in political science departments at such institutions as the University of California at Berkeley, UCLA, Harvard, NYU, M.I.T., Princeton, Yale, Southern California, Virginia, and Wellesley. Others have positions in research organizations like RAND, and still others have positions in university administration and government. Click to see the list of recent placements .

No. The Ph.D. program requires students to be present on campus and in-person for each quarter enrolled. The Ph.D. program is a full-time program and may not be completed on a part time basis.
Information on the JD/PhD program is available here .
Please review the information on the ‘ Guide on Getting Into Grad School .’ We are not able to speculate on an applicant's chances of admission, or review application materials prior to application, or provide guidance on individual applications beyond what is provided on the Political Science department website and the Guide to Getting Into Grad School.
The costs of pursuing graduate study at Stanford depend on various factors, including student's housing preferences and family circumstances, among other factors. Information about financing graduate study and typical expenses for graduate students can be found through Graduate Admissions. Information about our financial support, which usually covers tuition and living expenses, follows below.
The Department intends that all graduate students (both domestic and international) should have adequate support to enable them to complete their studies while enrolled full-time. The standard financial package offered to admitted students covers the full cost of tuition and an additional amount for living expenses . The latter amount comes in the form of a stipend during the first year and a combination of teaching and research assistantships during years 2-5. The Department also provides students with annual funds for professional development and health insurance fees. The Department provides five years of support for Ph.D. students who are making sufficient progress towards degree. Current information regarding tuition, fees, and living expenses .
Funded PhD students in good standing are eligible to receive 12 months of funding each year, for as long as five years.
In addition to providing the standard package described above, the Department will provide each student $1,500 in discretionary funds every year in year 1-5. Most students use this money to fund professional development expenses, including language study, faculty guided research and field work. In addition, funded PhD students in good standing are eligible to receive 12 months of funding each year for as long as five years, which provides students with the possibility of conducting field work during the summer. It is also possible to use pre-doc fellowship funds to support field work during the later years of the program. There are also numerous opportunities to supplement the funding by the department with grants and stipends from university research centers, such as the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies , the Institute for Research in the Social Sciences (IRiSS), and the Stanford King Center on Global Development .
Join dozens of Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences students who gain valuable leadership skills in a multidisciplinary, multicultural community as Knight-Hennessy Scholars (KHS). KHS admits up to 100 select applicants each year from across Stanford’s seven graduate schools, and delivers engaging experiences that prepare them to be visionary, courageous, and collaborative leaders ready to address complex global challenges. As a scholar, you join a distinguished cohort, participate in up to three years of leadership programming, and receive full funding for up to three years of your PhD studies at Stanford. Candidates of any country may apply. KHS applicants must have earned their first undergraduate degree within the last seven years, and must apply to both a Stanford graduate program and to KHS. Stanford PhD students may also apply to KHS during their first year of PhD enrollment. If you aspire to be a leader in your field, we invite you to apply. The KHS application deadline is October 9, 2024. Learn more about KHS admission .
The department offers teaching and research opportunities in five major research areas : American Politics, Comparative Politics, International Relations, Political Methodology, and Political Theory. In addition, there are ample opportunities for graduate study in related departments at the university.
You can access more specific information about particular faculty members by going to the faculty page.
No. It is not necessary or possible to secure an advisor before admission to the program. Offers of admission are made to the program, not to work with particular advisors. Applicants are encouraged to read the Admissions FAQ and contact politicalscience [at] stanford.edu (subject: Admissions%20Enquiries) (politicalscience[at]stanford[dot]edu) with any general admissions questions before contacting faculty.
No, the department does not require that prospective students be political science majors. On the other hand, the department does expect that prospective students have had sufficient exposure to the field for them to develop a clear statement of purpose for attending our graduate program. In addition, as part of the application materials, applicants are required to submit a written sample that will certainly justify students having previously studied political science.
No, a master’s degree is not required for admission, although roughly one-third of our applicants have completed a graduate degree prior to application to the PhD program.
No, students are not required to have taken advanced courses in quantitative methods as a prerequisite for admission. In fact, the department offers a four quarter sequence in quantitative methods that introduces first and second year students to methodological tools that they can later use in their chosen fields of study. This sequence does not assume that students have had prior exposure to statistics or advanced mathematics. In addition to the sequence, the department offers a math refresher course for three weeks prior to the start of classes in the fall for all students. Note, however, that there are certain areas of study (such as American politics and political behavior) that will require more training in quantitative methods beyond the first-year sequence. Opportunities to pursue advanced work in quantitative methods exist both within and outside the department (e.g., taking courses in the economics and statistics departments).
The Department rarely accepts the transfer of previous graduate work toward fulfilling pre-candidacy course requirements. However, students with previous graduate work may be able to count some of their previous course credits toward the university residency requirement, thus reducing the time required for the Ph.D. degree. The university may allow a maximum of 45 units for work done elsewhere in another graduate program. Transfer credit is subject to the approval of the Office of the University Registrar, and there is no guarantee that transfer credit will be awarded. Students cannot apply for transfer credit until they have completed at least one quarter of study at Stanford.
Admission to our program is highly competitive. The selection of PhD students admitted to the Department of Political Science is based on an individualized, holistic review of each application, including (but not limited to) the applicant’s academic record, the letters of recommendation, the scores on the General GRE (Graduate Record Examination), the statement of purpose, and the writing sample. About 12-15 students, chosen from a large pool of applicants, enter the program every year. These students are chosen on the basis of a strong academic background as evidenced by previous study, test results, writing sample, and letters of recommendation. Although we have no official score requirement, admitted students typically have GRE scores of 166+ verbal, 163+ quantitative, and a score of 5.5 in the analytical section. Admitted students typically have a GPA of at least 3.8 in their previous studies. Please be assured that the department reviews each application very carefully and makes decisions on an individual basis.
The Political Science department recognizes that the Supreme Court issued a ruling in June 2023 about the consideration of certain types of demographic information as part of an admission review. All applications submitted during upcoming application cycles will be reviewed in conformance with that decision.
Regrettably, we are not able to speculate on an applicant's chances of admission, or review application materials prior to application, or provide guidance on individual applications beyond what is provided on this website.
Admission committees follow guidelines established by the university and the department to ensure a fair review of application materials and the selection of a high quality pool of incoming students. An overview of graduate admission and study at Stanford is available.

No, all applications will be considered. However, admission to our program is highly competitive. Admitted students typically have very high GRE scores (approximately 166+ verbal, 163+ quantitative, and a score of 5.5 in the Analytical section). Admitted students typically have a GPA of at least 3.8 in their previous studies.
One year deferrals are granted only for serious and unforeseen circumstances that occur after the time of application. The one exception to that policy is that one year deferrals are allowed for students who will spend the next academic year at Stanford Law School as part of the Stanford joint JD/PhD program. Deferral requests to allow students to attend another university for a different degree program (such as a JD) are highly unlikely to be granted.

Please refer to the Office of Graduate Admissions Frequently Asked Questions for additional information on the application process and requirements.
In general, no. In most cases, you will be considered for any available departmental funding awards when you apply for graduate study, and a separate application is not necessary. Note that in order to be considered for Knight-Hennessy Scholars , you must submit a separate application.
The Statement of Purpose should describe succinctly your reasons for applying to the proposed program at Stanford, your preparation for this field of study, research interests, future career plans, and other aspects of your background and interests which may aid the admissions committee in evaluating your aptitude and motivation for graduate study. The Statement of Purpose should not exceed two single spaced pages (this is approximately 1,000 words). Additional information on crafting your statement of purpose is available here .
Yes, submitting a CV is required. Applications may upload a CV under "Experience" in the application.
Fee waivers are available for some applicants. Please visit Graduate Admissions for information on applying for an Application Fee Waiver . Please do not contact the Department to request a fee waiver as unfortunately, we are unable to grant them.
Be sure to submit your fee waiver request at least 10 business days (two weeks) before the application deadline to ensure a timely decision.
Join dozens of Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences students who gain valuable leadership skills in a multidisciplinary, multicultural community as Knight-Hennessy Scholars (KHS). KHS admits up to 100 select applicants each year from across Stanford’s seven graduate schools, and delivers engaging experiences that prepare them to be visionary, courageous, and collaborative leaders ready to address complex global challenges. As a scholar, you join a distinguished cohort, participate in up to three years of leadership programming, and receive full funding for up to three years of your PhD studies at Stanford. Candidates of any country may apply. KHS applicants must have earned their first undergraduate degree within the last seven years, and must apply to both a Stanford graduate program and to KHS. Stanford PhD students may also apply to KHS during their first year of PhD enrollment. If you aspire to be a leader in your field, we invite you to apply. The KHS application deadline is October 9, 2024. Learn more about KHS admission .
Applying to the Knight-Hennessy Scholars is not required in order to be admitted to the Political Science PhD program or to receive a funding package from the department.
You may update your application on your status page after submitting your application as follows:
No. The table of contents, bibliography, and appendices are not included in the 20-35 page writing sample.
Submit a request to Graduate Admissions (application login required).
Yes, GRE scores are required for all applicants. We are not able to grant waivers or make exceptions to the GRE requirement. We will accept test results from Educational Testing Service (ETS) home tests. If you are unable to take the GRE either at a testing center or via the at-home testing service by the application deadline, unfortunately you will need to wait until the next application cycle to apply.
No other exams (including the LSAT or GMAT) are accepted in lieu of the GRE.
Yes, all applicants must submit GRE scores, even if they have completed an advanced degree.
If you instructed ETS to send your test scores Stanford more than two weeks ago and your GRE or TOEFL scores are still shown as "Awaiting" on your Status Page, please submit a help request to Graduate Admissions.
Important: it may take up to two weeks from the date you you asked ETS to send the scores for test scores to be "Received" on your Status Page. Please do not request that ETS send scores again or contact Graduate Admissions to ask why your scores are listed as "Awaiting" if it has been less than two weeks since you submitted your application to Stanford. For example, if you sent your scores on December 1st, you can expect your test scores to appear as "Received" on your status page by December 15th.
If we haven't received official scores by the time the admissions committee begins review, we will consider your application with unofficial scores. This will not harm your chances of admission. We will, however, need to receive official scores from ETS before making an offer of admission.
Yes. Any scores you self-report on the application are considered unofficial but sufficient for the initial review process. If we haven't received official scores for all sections by the time the admissions committee begins review, we will consider your application with the unofficial scores submitted in your online application. We will need to receive official scores for all sections of the GRE from ETS before making an official offer of admission.
However, your unofficial GRE/TOEFL scores for all sections of the tests must be included in your application by the application deadline. This means that you must have taken the GRE/TOEFL prior to the application deadline. If you are unable to submit unofficial test scores for all sections of the test by the application deadline, we recommend that you wait to apply until the next application cycle.
If you had ETS send scores to Stanford prior to June 1, 2023 you will need to resubmit them.
We follow ETS policies on score validity (five years for GRE scores, two years for TOEFL scores). Refer to Test Scores for the earliest test date Stanford considers to be valid for the current application cycle.
Yes. List all GRE tests you took within the past five years that you wish to be considered by the admission committee. Do not enter “superscores” (a single entry that includes your highest section scores from multiple test dates). The application system will automatically display to the admission committee the highest score you earned in each section as well as all reported scores.
Please ask your letter writers to upload their letters no later than December 10th. If you do not have three letters of recommendation by then, your file will still be passed to the faculty committee for consideration. While recommenders may upload outstanding letters after December 10th, there's no guarantee they will be read as the committee will have already begun its work.
They should use the link in the recommendation request email they received when you registered them as a recommendation writer to request technical support. Please do not instruct letter writers to contact the department for help with technical issues. Additional information for recommendation writers is available here .
No. As recommenders are required to respond to specific evaluation questions on the recommendation form, Interfolio is not compatible with the online system. Please ask your recommenders to submit their letters directly using the online application system. Please remember that letters written specifically for your Stanford graduate program tend to be stronger than letters written for general use purposes.
You may manage your recommenders on the same Recommendations page where you registered them. This includes sending reminder emails and changing recommenders. You continue to have access to this page after you submit your application.
To change one of your recommenders: on the Recommendations page of the application, click on the recommender’s name you wish to replace, then click Exclude at the bottom of the resulting popup window. You then will see the option to add a new recommender. The recommender you exclude will not receive an email notification.
The department expects to see three letters of recommendation per application. Applicants may enter up to four recommenders and all letters of recommendation submitted by the December 10th deadline will be considered in the review process. However, there is no automatic advantage or disadvantage to submitting more than three letters of recommendation. Letters of recommendation will be evaluated solely on what they say about an applicant’s academic potential for graduate work, not on how many are submitted.
Letters of recommendation should come from academic or professional references who know you well and are qualified to evaluate your potential for graduate study. It is strongly recommended that at least one of these letters be from a university professor familiar with your academic work. Please see here for additional information.
No. Your recommenders may submit their letters before or after you submit your application.
No. Official transcripts are not required at the time of application. You must list and provide your unofficial transcript for every post-secondary institution where you were enrolled — or are currently enrolled — in an undergraduate or graduate degree program.
If you are offered admission to Stanford and accept the offer, you will be required to submit official transcripts that show your degree conferral.
No, this is not necessary. Applicants may upload updated transcripts via their Status Page until the application deadline.
If you were enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate degree program at that school, then yes. If you are offered admission to Stanford and accept the offer, you will not be required to submit official transcripts for schools you attended for less than one academic year or on a part-time basis.
In lieu of a transcript, please upload a document that includes the courses that are in progress.
Yes, as long as you must submit original language records with official English translations. We accept translations issued by the institution or a professional translating service. Translations must be literal and complete versions of the original records.
You are asked to enter both GPA and GPA scale for each institution you list on the application. Enter your GPA as it appears on your transcript. Do not convert your GPA to a 4.0 scale if it's reported on a different scale.
Information for international applicants is available from Graduate Admissions.
Stanford’s assessment of a post-secondary degree is based on the characteristics of a national educational system, the type of institution you attended, and the level of studies you completed. Refer to the Eligibility page to view the minimum level of study you should have achieved from a recognized academic institution to enroll in graduate study at Stanford. Contact Stanford’s Office of Graduate Admissions (not the Department of Political Science) with any further questions.
Applicants must score at least 100 on the Internet-based TOEFL in order to be eligible for admission, though admitted applicants typically score at least 115.
We accept the TOEFL iBT Home Edition and TOEFL iBT Paper Edition if you are unable to take the traditional TOEFL iBT test in a test center. If you take the Home Edition or Paper Edition, you may be required to complete additional English placement testing prior to enrollment.
You are automatically exempt from submitting a TOEFL score if you meet one the following criteria:
A. You (will) have a bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degree from a regionally- accredited college or university in the United States (territories and possessions excluded).
B. You (will) have an equivalent degree from an English-language university in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom.
If you are offered admission, the official transcript must be received showing conferral of the degree from the qualifying institution or TOEFL exam scores will be required to enroll.
You may request a TOEFL waiver in the online application if you (will) have a bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degree from a recognized institution in a country other than Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom in which English was the language of instruction.
Your waiver request will be routed to Graduate Admissions after you submit your application. Allow up to 15 business days after submitting your application for a response. This will not delay the receipt of your application by your graduate program.
Please note that the department of Political Science does not evaluate TOEFL waiver requests. Direct all questions to Stanford's Office of Graduate Admissions.
For the current application cycle, TOEFL scores from tests taken on or after September 1, 2023 are valid.
No. We do not accept TOEFL Essentials scores or any other English proficiency test (e.g., IELTS, PTE) or coursework in lieu of the TOEFL.
Yes, both international and domestic students receive the same funding package from the department. See here for further information .
No, the use of these services is encouraged but not required. See here for more information on submitting transcripts.
No, the admissions committee is not available for consultation. We are not able to speculate on an applicant's chances of admission, or review application materials prior to application, or provide guidance on individual applications beyond what is provided on this website.
Applicants may try to contact faculty before applying to discuss their interest in the PhD program, though it is not required nor expected. It is not necessary or possible to secure an advisor before admission to the program. Applicants are admitted to the program, not to work with particular faculty. Applicants are encouraged to read the Admissions FAQ and contact politicalscience [at] stanford.edu (politicalscience[at]stanford[dot]edu) with any admissions questions prior to contacting faculty.
Yes. The department invites admitted students to campus for a visit in April. This event is an excellent opportunity to talk to faculty and students about specific concerns or questions a prospective student may have.
The Department does not offer a master’s degree for external applicants. Applicants interested in a master’s degree should look into the Ford Dorsey Masters in International Policy . Current doctoral students from within the Stanford Political Science department or in another Stanford University department may apply for a Master of Arts in Political Science during the course of their Ph.D. program. Master's candidates must take 45 units of course work, and 25 of those units must be in graduate seminars. There is no examination or thesis requirement.

INFORMATION FOR
How is the mph curriculum structured.
The core curriculum for the MPH program consists of 5 courses and two Professional Skills Seminars. Our foundational classes in biostatistics, epidemiology, social and structural determinants of health inequities, and health policy and health care systems ground students with the breadth of skill sets and perspectives essential to careers in public health. "Major Health Threats" is an interdisciplinary course that uses a combination of lectures, case studies, and vignette approaches. Students learn to actively apply concepts, hone data interpretation skills, and frame research and health solution projects.
Health care management program, health policy, social and behavioral sciences, concentrations and tracks.
The following concentrations and tracks are available for students to customize their elective courses in the MPH program. They are 3-5 courses each and are added once students have begun the MPH program. Concentrations offer the opportunity for students to direct their applied practice experiences, whereas tracks are exclusively course based.
Here at YSPH, we believe that Global Health is Public Health. This means that it is not just a one department of study but rather an important theme that is woven throughout the program. Students in any department may also participate in the Global Health Concentration . YSPH GHC faculty is on the front lines of global health responses.
The Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Promotion track is a cutting-edge promotion-education program that takes a multidisciplinary approach to implementing evidence-based practices to improve outcomes. The MCH Promotion Track faculty trains students on the importance and application of implementation science to maternal-child health promotion.
YSPH Public Health Modeling (PHM) faculty is on the cutting edge of developing and assessing public health through mathematical modeling. Students in any department may also pursue the modeling concentration .
Vast, persistent, and avoidable health inequalities by race, geography, class, gender identity, and sexual orientation are well documented. YSPH USHJ faculty realize that addressing these inequalities is both a critical challenge and a critical objective for public health researchers and practitioners. This U.S. Health and Justice (USHJ) Concentration is for students who want to not only research and understand health inequities but to be agents of change for a new generation.
