Just to give you some background, I am a 2009 graduate of Washington University in St. Louis (BA in Political Science & History). For the majority of my undergraduate career, I didn't think of graduate school as something I would do in the near future. That changed a few months ago, when I suddenly signed up for a GRE course and decided that I wanted to make preparation for graduate school a goal for this summer. What complicates my situation is the fact that I will be teaching English in Hungary from September 2009-June 2010. I am extremely exciting about this upcoming experience and have been looking forward to it for months. Still, I would like to enter graduate school in the fall of 2010, meaning that I will have to apply when I am abroad. I have some concerns about being able to get through the application process from abroad, in addition to concerns about the opportunity costs of my applying in terms of missed travel opportunities, experiences, etc. Does anyone have any experience with this or thoughts on my situation? Much appreciated.
