The Economics department is accepting Masters and PhD applications for Fall 2024. We encourage all interested students to apply for the PhD program by Feb 1st for admissions and departmental full funding consideration. PhD applications completed by January 3 will receive consideration for other early UB-wide scholarships.
PhD applications submitted after February 1 will be considered for second round funding.
The incoming PhD stipend will be at least $23,000 for our departmental funded students.
Incoming freshman or undergraduate transfer applicants who are interested in pursuing economics study must first apply and be accepted to the University at Buffalo.
When applying, you should indicate your intended major on the application form. All relevant information, including admissions criteria, the online application, dates and deadlines, and standardized test score requirements, can be found by visiting UB Undergraduate Admissions.
