The Grad School Application Timeline

How you decide to spend your application year can affect the quality of your applications! Intentionality is very important to have enough time to prepare your materials and get sufficient feedback as well. This is the timeline that worked for me:
The Graduate School Search
​
The schools you choose to apply to determine where you end up and have huge implications on your entire career journey! It is important to dedicate time to make a strategic and well-informed list. I created a spreadsheet that helped me stay organized and keep track of the schools I was looking into.

Graduate School Essays​
​
Essays are arguably the part of your application you should pay the most attention to!

From my recommended timeline, you should spend your summer reviewing and rewriting your essays. I made a document breaking down the essence of each essay as well as resources that really helped me be happy with my own:​
