Deadlines & Requirements

You will receive your admissions decision starting in mid-February. International students are strongly recommended to apply by the regular decision deadline in order to allow enough time for the student visa application process.

After the regular decision deadline, we continue to accept applications until May 31, or earlier if the incoming cohort is full. If your application is received after the cohort is full, your application will be considered for the following year’s admissions cycle. Decisions will be released approximately six weeks after the application is received.

You may complete your application through DRBU’s application portal.

At least one letter should be from a current or former teacher. The other can be from another teacher, or someone else who you knows you well. These letters should speak to your motivation and capacity to undertake the program. Letters of recommendation can be submitted through the Common App or our application portal. (If you are having trouble, you can use this form and have the letters sent directly to DRBU.) 

Submit all official high school (and college, if applicable) transcripts. Official transcripts must be sealed and mailed to us directly by your previous school(s).

GRE and other standardized test scores are not a required part of our application. However, you may choose to include them if you wish and they will be considered alongside other parts of your application. To submit your scores to DRBU, our institution code is 4282.

International students who speak English as a second language are required to submit test scores demonstrating their English language proficiency. Visit our international students page for more information.
