- Research - Have an idea what you would like to do when you get here. It doesn't have to be a fully formed thesis, just know what direction you'd like to explore. Which leads nicely to...
- Faculty - It's a good idea to research the faculty and have a couple ideas of who you'd like to work with. Make sure they are doing research which falls in line with what you'd like to be doing. I like to say that you'll be using their research as a springboard for your own.
- Statement of Purpose - This is where you let us know about who'd you like to work with and what you'd like to do. This helps the admissions committee direct your application and shows you've done your homework.

PhD Applicants: What to know before you apply.
Though each program is different, and I recommend talking to an individual program coordinator, there are some generalities when it comes to filling out the application.
