UChicago Psych Graduate Admissions Webinar, October 22 @4pm CDT
Psychology @ UChicago: How to Survive and Thrive in the Psychology Graduate Application Process 2020
The Department of Psychology at UChicago will be hosting an admissions webinar for all prospective PhD applicants in Psychology. This event will be held on Thursday, October 22, 2020 at 4-5:30pm (Chicago time zone). See website link for details: https://psychology.uchicago.edu/content/admissions-webinar
“The goal of this webinar is to enhance the strength of the applications prospective PhD students can construct. It can be difficult for applicants to know how to best demonstrate their readiness and fit for a particular PhD program. This may be exacerbated for applicants who don’t have access to “insider” information about what constitutes a strong application. We believe that innovative and meaningful research requires a diverse set of ideas, and this webinar is one attempt to democratize the dispersal of information about the PhD application process.”
Make sure to register by October 19 and submit questions in advance!
