The admissions process for the Statistics, Social and Engineering Systems (SES), and Technology and Public Policy (TPP) full-time graduate programs at MIT will not be changed by having the MITx MicroMasters program credential in Statistics and Data Science.
Learners who have earned the MicroMasters credential still need to participate in the standard admissions process for any program they apply to and meet all application requirements. Successful completion of the MicroMasters program does not guarantee admission to MIT SES and TPP graduate programs.
However, having the MicroMasters program credential can provide valuable insights to the admissions committee about a learner's capabilities. The completion of four online courses and one virtually-proctored cumulative exam demonstrates a learner's proficiency in statistics and data science. It is encouraged for learners to note the completion of the MITx MicroMasters program credential in their application, as it will be taken into consideration by the admissions committee.
