Apply to the Yale Physics PhD Program

Apply Now


The Yale Department of Physics welcomes applications to our matriculating graduate class of 2025 beginning around August 15th, 2024. The General GRE and Physics GRE scores are Optional for applications received by the December 15, 2024, submission deadline.

We recognize the continuing disruption caused by COVID-19 and that the hardship of taking GREs falls unequally on individual students. We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment for all; therefore, we do not require these standardized tests for admission to our program. All applications are reviewed holistically, and preference will not be given to students who do or do not submit GRE scores.
