I am currently a senior undergraduate, and I am beginning the process of applying for political science PhD programs. I have a very high GPA and relevant work experience through out my undergrad career (research, fellowships, campaigns, etc.). I am hoping to go straight into a Phd program, but I know this can be received differently, good or bad, from different programs.
What do I need to know about applying to a Phd program as a undergraduate? How should I tailor my application to account for this?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
