Graduate School

3. Target Schools – How do you select which ones to apply to?

  • Apply to three tiers of programs
  • Two “safe” schools
    Two “probably/maybe” schools
    Two “reach” schools (most competitive)
  • Most people apply to 5 -15 graduate programs.
  • Timetable for applying – Although schools vary in their application deadlines, it is very important to start early.
