Interview thank you emails

[williamt9494]

Hey! 

So I just went on my first grad school visit! I feel like it went super well and I've got another one in two days. 

As to my question, should I send the professor who organized my visit a thank you? Should I send the other professors and grad students thank you emails as well or no? If it makes any difference, I thanked everyone personally before I took off. 

Thanks!

You can send a quick thank you email to those you interviewed with. It won't really hurt or help your chances.

I would definitely advise it. It could help, but won't hurt. I know people who place a surprising premium on that sort of thing.

Yes, it's good to thank people for their time and say something like you enjoyed the conversation. If you have any questions (including research related), you can also ask them in e-mail, but don't overdo it.

Some people use this to keep on the profs radar, but I doubt if it really helps..
