UConn Comparative Literary and Cultural Studies no GRE?

[cbttcher]

I just wanted to send my GRE results to UConn and now it doesn't say that they even want the GRE results? And now I'm scared that I'm missing something... Does anyone know anything about this?

What's weird about a school not asking for the GRE? Some schools don't require it at all, and others say it's recommended but not required.

It's not weird really. I just don't want to miss anything, you know?

Don't you have time to call or e-mail them? My schools' websites state directly what they need regarding to the GRE. I don't think it should be the kind of info that tend to be hidden between the lines. I think you might find a clue when you start your online application?

Man, some graduate school websites are really difficult to understand, especially the ones with separate applications for the grad school admissions dept and the actual department itself. I can understand the confusion, which is why I second Rose Egypt's suggestion to email the department directly to confirm.

 

Best of luck with your applications!

I finally got a reply this morning my time (or 12:30 am EST) from one of the professors and he said that the graduate school requires the GRE. Luckily, I already sent it as a precaution. But it's really annoying that it's so unclear because the grad school website says that you only have to send the GRE General/Subject results if the department requires them. It's really confusing.

Whew! Glad you sent it in ahead of time. But yeah, that's really frustrating and confusing...
