A candidate with a Bachelor's degree in Physics and a Master's in Mathematics can apply for a PhD in Physics in the USA, even if their previous education was completed in Greece. However, it is important to note that most PhD programs in the US require students to complete master's-level coursework in physics before advancing to doctoral research. Concerns were raised about the acceptance of candidates who already hold a Master's degree, particularly at prestigious universities, as they may be less likely to admit such applicants. Nonetheless, the primary requirement remains the completion of necessary coursework in physics.
