Or thinking about it. . . . Or did it last year, and want to help others in the process. . .This is the Community for you! This is a community to ask the questions you're afraid to ask your advisor. To get reccomendations for programs that you really should be looking at. To sympathise with others about how you just can't get your act together. To post your statment of purpose and get some feedback. To share information you have about fellowships. To connect with someone at the school you're looking at and get the inside deal on the program. Is this community for you? Well, you should read this before you join This community is for people applying to graduate programs in the United States only. Different rules apply to schools in different countries, and it would just get too confusing otherwise. This community is only for people applying to MA/MS/MFA/MSW and PhD programs. A general rule of thumb- if you have to take the GRE's to get into the program, this is the community for you. If you have to take the GMATs, MCATS, LSATs, or any of those other tests, this is not the community for you. Still want to join? Then just CLICK HERE to gain posting access to the community.
