I am also new to this process.. is it always necessary to contact the professor whom you're interested in working with or does that happen after you get accepted?/
Hey, most of the time I just asked for the day off without giving a reason or I would just call in sick if the interview dates are close together..since I dont want to use the same excuse twice..I think it depends how supportive and flexible your manager is
Thanks for the response ...that is good to know...do they care how long you worked in research? I talked about my research in my SOP but I didn't say for how long I've been working and I only mentioned what journal my publication is in but I didn't give the title of the paper...do you think they will take into account being a TA for a microbiology lab
Wait...so the schools will pay the students to fly out???? Yeah I just think its a waste that the school doesn't know about any of my extracurricular activities
If you get an interview can you assume that the school thinks your application is good enough...I'm asking this because I don't think the school knows about my leadership or TA experiences since their application doesn't have a space to list extracurricular activities and work experience...in my SOP I mostly talked about my research..I'm not sure if I should try to send a CV or something else that tells them all the things I've done if I already got an interview
thanks
Thanks!! hope we hear back soon..BTW was there anywhere on the MSU app that allowed you to list your research experience or work experience during undergrad
