Daisy123 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 This is my first year applying here. I am worried. Does anyone have any experience/ advise/ knowledge of the Anthro program at UNLV ? Is anyone applying here besides me? I am starting this topic so we can support each other and go crazy together thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bioarch_fan Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I talked with Dr. Deb Martin last year at the AAA conference in Chicago and she said that their program in bioarchaeology is centered around violence. Mine technically is not centered around violence, however I still plan on applying to their program next year since I can stretch my interests to encompass violence. I decided to stick to one more year with my undergrad instead of graduating a year early. But really think hard about whether your interests are associated with violence in bioarchaeology (if bioarchaeology is what you're interested in doing, which from other posts of yours it does).

bioarch_fan Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Thank you so much for your advise! This is a good key word so to speak i can use in my SOP You're welcome! If you're applying to work with Deb Martin, you'll enjoy her. She's tough from what I hear but she's an amazing woman. I talked to her for a while and I'm still debating on applying there. I'm not 100% on the funding there though, the best thing to do is also talk to one of her grad students. There's a grad student there that I met while at the AAA conference as well. He can tell you a lot about Dr. Martin and probably give you more insider information about the program. If you want his name message me and I'll give it to you.
