Thanks a lot for your reply! Just a follow up: my application deadline is December 1st. So if I wait a week to email her, it will literally be around 5 days before the deadline. Will professors frown at such a late email? Also, instead can I email her after submitting the application? I'll write an extremely personalized email telling her I am interested and tell her I've already submitted an application, so look out for it or something? I feel so terrible for making that mistake! I dont know how it slipped my notice.

I was hoping to reapply for PhD at a university I had already applied to before, but under a different professor. Does this impact my chances of getting in? Further, will the admission committee look at my old application materials?

So I made an error in my email to a potential advisor when expressing my interest in her lab. I bymistake wrote the wrong lab name. This was 7 days back, and she hasn't replied. Will this affect my chances of admission? Is there anyway I can rectify this?

Thanks guys, this has been helpful!

Hey, I was planning on applying for Rutgers next year. I just wanted others' opinions on how good their Cognitive Psychology PhD program is. I was personally pretty interested in the research being done by the professors. But for some reason was confused about whether it is worth opting for. On a scale of 1 to 10, how good do you think their program is?
