WHO AM I?
I am a Harvard Graduate School of Education alumni '16 and a current PhD student in the Department of Education Studies at the University of California San Diego. I produce videos about the graduate school application and my journey through a PhD program. Subscribe to follow my journey through the PhD experience and to gain insight on how to best prepare for the graduate school application process.
I created this channel because I did not have access to many resources when I was applying for graduate programs. Now that I have been through two graduate school application processes, I want to share my knowledge and the helpful information I have gained through those experiences.
Additionally, for the past four years, I have been working as a Retention Specialist and Director for a federally-funded program at a higher education institution. I spent these four years helping over 400 students to apply to four-year institutions, attain scholarships, and navigate the higher education system. I created this channel in order to share my knowledge of college access as it pertains to graduate school.

Hello Ivan, I am applying for Harvard Data science Ms this year. They require SOP as well as personal statement . Any idea or tips how to approach this type of personal statement?

[@IvanValdovinosGradSchool]

The personal statement is about your background and how those experiences have shaped your career goals and academic interests. I would focus it on diversity equity and inclusion and how you advance that through your previous experiences.

[@tahasin243]

Hi Ivan do you have any video on them? It would be great if I could get an idea how to approach it.

[@IvanValdovinosGradSchool]

@@tahasin243 I do not have a video on personal statements because most applications don’t ask for them. Sorry.

What GPA is more important when applying to phd? Masters or undergraduate gpa?

[@IvanValdovinosGradSchool]

I would say the undergraduate major because it’s a requirement that you have at least a 3.0. It’s expected that people with Masters have high GPAs.

The background music is so high

[@IvanValdovinosGradSchool]

Thank you for the feedback. I actually lowered it and is not that low for my liking and others haven’t commented on that. Sorry if it was a pain for you.
