Hello,

Universities in most countries accept the GRE score as one of the PhD eligibility requirements, although it may be important to note that many top universities in the UK do not require GRE scores for admission. For a PhD program in Maths, even if the program does not require you to, it would be best if you also took the GRE Subject Test in Mathematics. 

The main point of consideration for PhD admission though, is that just the GRE score is not sufficient to earn you an admit to the top universities. Instead, you'll have to submit a number of supporting documents such as a statement of purpose (SOP), research papers and other academic publishings, letters of recommendation (LOR) etc. Therefore, there are a lot of steps that a candidate must take to ensure a successful PhD application.

The best universities in different countries in the world for PhD in Maths are:

  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA)
  • Harvard University (USA)
  • University of Oxford (UK)
  • University of Cambridge (UK)
  • ETH Zurich (Switzerland)
  • National University of Singapore (Singapore)
  • The University of Tokyo (Japan)
  • University of Toronto (Canada)
  • Peking University (China)
  • The Australian National University (Australia)
  • Ecole Polytechnique (France)

Please specify your country or university of interest for more specific eligibility and steps to gain admission in a PhD program in mathematics.

Hi Jyoti,

GRE is primarily accepted at universities in USA, Canada and some universities in Singapore. However, some universities beyond these countries also accept GRE score for their post graduate programmes. You have to first curate a list of the universities you are interested to pursue your PhD and then check their requirement.
