Applying to Graduate School

A Timeline for Prospective Graduate Students:

This time line for students interested in attending graduate school. It can also serve as a checklist for the general steps within the application process.

The process of applying to graduate school can be overwhelming and arduous. The best way to keep you sanity is to take the process step-by-step and to stay organized. This is a general time line that is meant for you to use as a guide. This timeline is not all-inclusive and not every step needs to be done in this order. This is merely a suggestion of one way to tackle the job. It is most important for you to find a method that works for you and stick with it.
