Thank you so much!!! Honestly, this gave me so much more clarity! As a first-generation college student, I sometimes feel like I'm going into this blindly so this video was so much help! Thank you again, have a blessed day!
Omg I was watching this and was like wait she looks familiar.. Oh that used to be my TA for my psyc class at UCSD! Thank you for the useful tips. Do you think it is possible if I could privately message you for some advice?
Lol that's great 😂 yeah for sure! PM me, email me, whatever works 😊
Hi Zoe! Your advice is super helpful, I really like the sound of your word document with the checklists! I was wondering if you would be able to post a copy/template of it? There's so many components to the application process, its hard to keep track! Having it all laid out would be super helpful. Thanks!
Thanks so much Zoe!:) This is SO helpful!! I was wondering how many schools you applied to?
Thanks! I applied to 8, I believe. :)
Thank you for your wonderful video Zoe! Do you think l need to send emails to professors when l apply to MA program?
This is nice thank you
THIS IS SO HELPFUL!! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I feel like a weight has been lifted!
Helpful rambling ! I realized I've been doing some things well and other things not so well.
When you emailed profs prior to applying to their schools, did you add your cv/transcript with the email ?
Thanks for the advice !
Yes, I'm pretty sure I did attach my CV. I think that's helpful so that if they are interested in you, then they can find out a little more about you through your CV before contacting you back!
Awesome awesome video. So helpful. Thank you
Hello Zoe, I am planning to study in Canada and I applied for that. But IRCC have rejected because of some reasons. Could you please help me to solve something related to International education.
Hi Zoe, if I’m finishing my undergraduate in May 2023 and want to start grad school by September, when should I start studying for GREs?
I would recommend studying the summer before you apply (so the summer of 2022)
Thanks Zoe! Your video is informative.
Hi Zoe, approximately how long did it take from the very beginning of the process to your acceptance?
Probably almost a year, from when I started looking at schools, studying for the GRE, getting all my materials together and writing the applications, going to interviews, receiving an offer, and finally accepting.
Do you send the same recommendation letters to each school or do you have to ask your profs to write 3, 4, 5 letters?
Same recommendation everywhere :) (at least in my experience!)
How many programs is too much to apply for?
It depends a lot on what your field is and how competitive of an applicant you are. I would recommend 6-10, but I would also recommend to not apply to any programs where you aren't a good fit or cannot picture yourself going there.
Thank you!
