<p>Could any explain to me the differences between the two admission processes? and how each candidate is evaluated differently?</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>Which MS you’re talking about depends on whether the MS applied for is a thesis or non-thesis program. Thesis MS admissions are more like PhD admissions than non-thesis ones, and both depend heavily upon recs.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input!</p>
<p>I’m referring to a M.S. with thesis. are they evaluated the same as a Ph.D candidate?</p>
