不良研究所

Although 不良研究所 allows Departments, at their discretion, to accept some other language tests, our Department accepts only the TOEFL or IELTS.

Applicants (including Permanent Residents of Canada) whose mother tongue is not English and who have not completed an undergraduate or graduate degree from a recognized institution where English is the language of instruction or from a recognized Canadian institution (anglophone or francophone), are required to submit documented proof of competency in oral and written English by appropriate exams:

• : a minimum score of 100 on the internet based test, or a score of 600 on the paper based version of the TOEFL test (or 250 on the older computer-based test). [TOEFL results are only valid for two years from the date the test was written]. Institution Code: 0935.
• : a minimum overall band of 6.5.

Before acceptance, appropriate exam results must be submitted directly from the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) or IELTS (International English Language Testing Systems) Offices. An institutional version of the TOEFL is not acceptable.

Applications will not be considered if a TOEFL or IELTS test result is not received by the deadline.

All application material and supporting documents must be uploaded directly to the 不良研究所 admissions application system. See for information and instructions.

All applicants to the Biostatistics programs must submit the following:

1. Online Application for Admission form:
2. Application fee: Application fees and other charges are listed on the听student account web page.
3. Transcripts: your complete record of study from each university-level institution you have attended to date. Uploaded copies will be considered as unofficial; final, official copies will be required once you are offered admission.
4. Reference letters: on the application form you must provide the names and email addresses of two professors who are familiar with your academic work. 不良研究所 will contact these referees and invite them to upload references on your behalf. Please note that although you can list public domain addresses such as Hotmail, Gmail, or Yahoo Mail on the application form, references uploaded from these addresses will not be accepted by the Department. Therefore you must list a valid institutional or corporate e-mail address for your referees.
   When planning your application submission, please be aware that referees are asked to respond within ten days. As our deadline falls close to the holiday break, please take this into account when communicating with your referees, and consider submitting by December 1 in order to give them ample time to respond. Your file is not considered complete until the referees responses have been received.
5. Personal Statement: your statement should be no more than two (2) pages and may address the following:
   • What are your post-biostatistics training/career objectives?
   • What specific knowledge and skills do you hope to acquire during your biostatistics training?
   • How will this knowledge and these skills enable you to attain your career objectives?
   • What particular area(s), if any, would you like to study in your course work for the program?
   • What particular area(s), if any, would you like to pursue for your project or thesis topic?
   • If you have a specific research question in mind, provide a brief outline.
   • Are there any factors related equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility that you believe should be considered in our review of your application (e.g., any circumstances that may have affected your academic or research achievement)?
6. Curriculum Vitae: an overview of your experience and other qualifications, including employment, academic credentials, publications, contributions, and significant achievements.
7. TOEFL/IELTS, GRE results (if applicable): when registering for the test, please ensure that you request that results be sent directly to 不良研究所. 不良研究所 will then receive the results electronically, directly from the testing agency. Institution Code: 0935.
