Students must apply and be admitted to the graduate program in French and Francophone Studies and The Graduate School before they can apply for admission to the dual-title degree program.  After admission to their primary program, students must apply for admission to and meet the admission requirements of the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies dual-title program.  Refer to the Admission Requirements section of the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Bulletin page.  Applicants interested in the dual-title degree program may make their interest in the program known clearly on their applications to French and Francophone Studies and include remarks in their statement of purpose that address the ways in which their research and professional goals in the primary department reflect an interest in Women’s Studies-related research.

To be enrolled in the Dual-Title Doctoral Degree Program in Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, a student must have the approval of the French and Francophone Studies Department and then submit a letter of application and transcript, which will be reviewed by the Women’s Studies Admissions committee. An applicant must have a minimum grade-point average of 3.2 (on a 4.0 scale) to be considered for enrollment in the dual-title degree program. Students must be admitted into the dual-title degree program in Women’s Studies prior to obtaining candidacy in French and Francophone Studies.
