A Step By Step Guide For Applying to Graduate School
What you will learn
In this course, I will provide you with a step-by-step approach for applying to graduate schools. You will not only learn from my perspective but also get to hear other students who faced similar challenges in the process. This is a LIVE course and will be continuously updated with student and admission committee interviews.
Description
Welcome! This course is based on the book, How to Get Into Harvard & Other Ivy League Graduate Schools. In the book, I’ve outlined the path I took to get into an MBA Program at The Wharton School in 2018 and an MPA Program at the Harvard Kennedy School in 2019.
I personally struggled when I applied because I didn’t know who I could reach out to. Coming from a lower middle-class background, I couldn’t afford the admissions consultants, nor did I know anyone who could relate to my circumstances. In the book and the accompanying course, I have tried to offer a perspective that I wish someone would have shared with me when I was applying.
Refer to the video, ‘How This Came About’ to get a sense of my other reasons for creating the course. I have incorporated the questions that I’m asked by other prospective applicants but if there is anything that you feel is missing, please comment and I will try my best to find you the right answer. My hope is that this course will help you make the right decision for yourself.
In the materials accompanying this book, you will hear from dozens of graduate students about their journeys and what it took to get there. I have also contacted the Admissions Committees at multiple schools and I will be adding their interviews over time. Don’t miss out on:
1) First-hand stories of students who recently applied and got into the top Ivy League graduate schools (updated weekly)
2) The challenges that other graduate students faced and how they overcame them
3) Free access to the original book, currently priced at $20 for paperback
4) Application Timelines for Top MBA Programs
5) Essay Questions for Top MBA Programs
6) Admission Committee Interviews
7) My personal collection of dozens of GMAT and GRE resources
8) Rankings for top graduate schools (MBA, Med School, Engineering, Computer Science, and Public Policy)
9) An overview of the US Visa application process
10) Sample MBA Essays
11) Sample Post Graduation Career Report
12) Typical MBA Class Profiles
Given my experience as an MBA and MPA student, I am cognizant that I am much more knowledgeable about those degrees than any other graduate schools you might be applying to. If you feel that might be the case, please reach out to me and I can interview someone else who can provide you a more first-hand perspective on the process.
All the very best with your applications and please don’t hesitate to reach out. My objective is to build a community of learning that can help alleviate the confusion around the admissions process.
Thank you and I look forward to seeing you in the course!
