  1. I'm applying to these Schools for geomorphology and hydrology University of Tennesse Penn State University of Colorado, Boulder University of Illinois at Urbana Kansas State University maybe Universityof California, Davis With 3.6 GRE scores are meh But plenty of research, two publications with GSA, and great letter of rec
  2. hey what was your stats if I may ask I applied to SDSU as well and still waiting to hear back from them :/
  3. Hey Y'all One school offering me to do Masters in hydrogeology with no funding.....and possibly instruct classes Or... stay at my current university with the geography program to do Masters in fluvial and arid geomorphology with a high chance to teach physical geography courses and some funding. Ultimately, I want a PhD in geology after to be a professor.... but I think I would be okay with a physical geography/geomorphology. Any ideas what I should do :)?
  4. Got my first acceptance for M.S. in geology to do hydrogeology! I do not know if anyone else is waiting from Chico State... My stats were posted on the 23rd of Feb if y'all care Still waiting on SDSU, SFSU, and CSULA

  6. @geographyrocks WOW! Thank you so much ! Yeah it sucks that I did not figure out I enjoyed geology more than geography. Luckily, the programs at the universities I applied for informed that I can make up all those core classses! This leaves me hopeful in waiting for an acceptance letter Thank you so much !
  7. @SickSlickensides and @zerozircon thanks for your input! I think I will finish those pre-recs at my local community college IF I am rejected (hopefully not)
  8. @GeoDUDE! Yeah I'm still taking math and chemistry at the moment (last semester of undergrad)... They said if I were to be accepted they would let me take those courses I needed before I work on my Masters.. trying to do petrology or hydrogeology so we will see haha I guess if I am rejected I should go to a CC and work on all those classes and attempt again for fall 2017 admittance?
  9. Hello So this is my issue: I am currently a Geography major with a geology minor and applied to several schools for a masters in geology (Cal State La, Chico state, SF state, and SD state) I was influenced to apply to these schools to be conditionally classified and work on my pre rec (math, physics, geology, and chem) for a year until I begin my master's degree. But, I'm not sure if I will be accepted since I do not have a strong science background.... I have a 3.5 gpa, internship as a geologist and GIS analyst, strong letters of reference, and personal statement IF I am rejected.. I have an offer to go to University of Colorado, Boulder for a second bachelors in geology. should I go there if rejected and work on a second bachelors or boost up my application for fall 2017 by going to a CC to complete those pre rec courses? Thank you
  10. @sjoh197 Thank you ill check it out I'm super new here haha
  11. Anyone else apply recently to CSU Chico, cal state LA, SF state, or SD state too? I applied for geology/geoscience Not sure if anyone knows the difficulty for them? Or anyone know when we will know :)? #SorryNewToThis
  12. Hey Y'all! So I recently applied to Cal State LA, Cal State Chico, San Diego State, and San Francisco State for their masters in geology/geoscience. Did anyone else apply this month before the march first deadline? Anyone know when is the average time we will hear back if we applied this close to the deadline? any one know the difficulty of acceptance too? I am super nervous like many of y'all any info is great info
