Admit summary statistics:
As submitted and recoreded from Test Magic:
There were 1 accepted out of 1 applicants.Of those accepted, average GPA was 4.00, average GREQ was 760.0.
From the Department webpage in 2010 (please send me a link if this is wrong!)
There is no single, sufficient condition for admission with financial aid. We look at a portfolio of items that include (not in any order): GRE scores (especially the Quantitative); transcripts; grades in math and economics courses; letters of recommendation; and the written statement of purpose. Each year, out of about 250- 300 applicants, we offer admission with funding to approximately 35 Ph.D. applicants and approximately 15 M.S. applicants.
