Page 3 of 8 The spring of your Senior Year 
Ah, the last semester of your undergraduate life (hopefully). Here are some date ranges to look forward to:• Jan 20 – Feb 10: Most schools that like to get programs started early will be contacting you for interviews or ( ) sending out rejection letters • Feb 20: Later schools usually get in the game around now. • March: Look to hear from those early schools around mid-month. It’s a funny thing. For early February, you don’t want to hear anything because it’s mostly rejections as first-round elimination. Then you want to hear things, and then as you approach the end of March, second-round elimination occurs and you again are reluctant to open your mailbox. • April 15: This seems to be a magic number for graduate programs. This is usually the deadline that they’ll want a response back from you so they can offer to their second choice candidates. This means they’ll have to get you some word by mid to late march. May of your Senior Year So you have your B.A. in hand and should know what your future holds. Kick back and relax. Throw a party for yourself. If you didn’t get into graduate school this year, start planning again and know that with the practice you had last year, you’ll surly get in this time! (Still throw yourself a party) |
