I have been trying to get into graduate school for 3 years. First for clinical psych for 2 cycles, and today I got into my dream school for an M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy on my 3rd admission cycle. I have done years of unpaid labor while I struggled to advance my career, and man today feels good.
Its been hard, but all I know is that if I had gotten into a phd program I would have been miserable.
If you are facing rejections, keep trying. You are working hard through a really tough and debilitating process, but you're trying! You did your best!
