Thinking about grad school in Psychology?
Just curious about what grad school is?
Join us on October 20th at 3:30pm for an information session about the basics of grad school and grad school planning! You’ll hear from faculty and graduate students across all areas of the Psych department. And we hope you’ll stay after for an informal meet and greet, where you can chat with us directly!
The meet and greet will follow in the PAS lounge from 5:00pm to 6:00pm.
Duke University's Anti-Racism Committee is offering free application help for anyone applying to any psychology or neuroscience programs (not Duke specific) within their Virtual Office Hours program. The deadline to reserve a spot is October 31st, 2023 at 11:59pm EST.
This is a wonderful program where prospective psychology PhD applicants can get personalized help with their application statements from Duke faculty, staff, or graduate students.
Importantly, anyone applying to ANY psychology PhD program in the United States is welcome to submit the materials for review – it does not have to be a Duke application! Between November 6th and 17th applicants will receive individualized feedback (via one-on-one Zoom meetings) on your application materials (personal, research, and/or diversity statements + CV) from faculty, post-docs, clinical interns, and graduate students at Duke. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions about the graduate school application process.
All are welcome, but BIPOC, first-generation, low-income, and LGBTQIA+ applicants are especially encouraged to sign up.
This is a great opportunity for undergraduate students, research assistants, post-baccalaureate researchers, lab managers, lab stuff and any aspiring PhD students to get personalized, one-on-one help with their application materials. Please register by clicking the link in the event details or forward this information to those you know who may benefit from this event.
