Transcript:
One copy of official transcript from all academic institutions you have attended beyond secondary school. Transcripts must be sent to the Department directly from the institutions or collected in sealed envelopes. Transcripts must be sent to Student Affairs Office, Information Studies, 207 GSE&IS Bldg., Box 951520, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA 90095-1520.
Curriculum Vitae:
A standard résumé or vita should also be included.
Personal Statement:
Write the statement of purpose carefully. The statement should describe one or more proposed areas of specialization, reasons for interest in those areas, and qualifications for pursuing them. Suggesting topics for your own future research is a welcome sign; identification of specific courses is usually not helpful, unless such courses relate to research goals. The statement of purpose is also used to determine whether the specializations provided by the doctoral program are appropriate to the applicant’s needs. The applicant is encouraged to identify Information Studies faculty whose areas of research are of special interest.
Recommendation Letter:
Three letters of recommendation are required. Of the three letters, submit at least one, and preferably two, from individuals who hold the Ph.D., have conducted research, and have published in library and information science or a related field. In most cases, letters from faculty, rather than supervisors or co-workers, provide the most useful assessment of your intellectual abilities and potential for research and writing.
Other Document:
Evidence of research and writing. This could be published work, a master’s thesis, or two research papers written in English.
