Transcript:
Official transcripts. During the initial phase of application process, simply upload one copy of official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended into the application system. YOU DO NOT NEED TO SEND COPIES OF YOUR OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS TO THE DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY UNTIL YOUR APPLICATION IS ACCEPTED. UCSB Graduate Division no longer requires two copies of Official Transcripts as part of the initial application phase. If your application is accepted by the Department of Anthropology, you will then be required to submit single copies of Official Transcripts to UCSB Graduate Division to verify your enrollment eligibility. This allows you to use one copy of your official transcripts to upload for all of the institutions to which you apply and which use a similar application process. This is becoming a more common practice among graduate schools across the nation and will hopefully save you money, time, and hassle in not having to order numerous copies for each institution.
Curriculum Vitae:
Curriculum Vitae (CV)
Personal Statement:
Statement of Purpose. A brief statement outlining your reasons for undertaking a graduate program, your particular area of specialization within the major field, your past academic work, and your plans for future occupation or profession. Also include any additional information that may assist the selection committee in evaluating your preparation and aptitude for graduate study at UC Santa Barbara. Your statement should demonstrate a clear focus of research interests including both geographical and topical specialties.
Recommendation Letter:
Three letters of recommendation. Letters should ideally come from professors who know the applicant's work very well and who can comment in detail. Letters should be requested and submitted through the online application process.
Statement of Personal Achievements/Contributions:
Statement of Personal Achievements/Contributions. UC Santa Barbara is interested in a diverse and inclusive graduate student population. Please describe any aspects of your personal background, accomplishments, or achievements that you feel are important in evaluating your application for graduate study. For example, please describe if you have experienced economic challenges in achieving higher education, such as being financially responsible for family members or dependents, having to work significant hours during undergraduate schooling or coming from a family background of limited income. Please describe if you have any unusual or varied life experiences that might contribute to the diversity of the graduate group, such as fluency in other languages, experience living in bicultural communities, academic research interests focusing on cultural, societal, or educational problems as they affect underserved segments of society, or evidence of an intention to use the graduate degree toward serving disadvantaged individuals or populations.
Writing Sample:
Writing Sample. This should be a paper or thesis with a minimum length of 10 double-spaced typed pages prepared for a course or to satisfy a degree requirement. The applicant should be the sole author and editor of the paper or thesis. The cover page should specify the course or degree requirement for which the paper or thesis was written, as well as the name and institutional affiliation of the faculty member who graded or reviewed the paper. Applicants who have not attended college for some time and therefore do not have a course paper or thesis, may submit a nonacademic writing sample of comparable length, so long as a specific person in a position of authority can verify that the applicant is the sole author and editor of the paper.
