Hello, everyone! I'm a bit new to the whole application process for grad school in philosophy and could use some help. I'm finishing up my junior year and I will be graduating in the spring of 2018 so I figured I should get a head start on the application process. I was wondering for people who are in my current position or have experience with the application process if you guys have any recommendations on what I should be focusing on in this timeframe. In other words, are there certain things I should be doing right now to better my application? Any info on the process would help as well. A little more info about me: I attend a small liberal arts school in Southern California and I am double majoring in Philosophy and Psychology. I have a 3.7 accumulative GPA (3.9 philosophy; 3.7 in psychology) and I know all my professors in the philosophy department fairly well so I can count on them for letters of rec's. My main interests in philosophy are metaphysical topics such as philosophy of the mind, personal identity, and free will. I started my philosophy degree later than usual because I took an intro class my sophomore year and fell in love with the field. Thank's again for any help!
