icedance Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Hey Guys I have a question for re-application. I have applied master program 3 yrs ago and ended with rejections for most programs. After 3 yrs, I have improved with better GRE, better English, better letters and a Master program. I am wondering does my history record matter for my current application? You know, when I fulfill the application system online, they always ask me about this story and even I need to write a little essay about "If you are reapplying for graduate study at XXX, describe how your academic qualifications have changed and whether you were previously admitted" Is it important? Thanks
AlphabetSoup Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Absolutely! You have the opportunity to prove that you are not applying to graduate school for the wrong reasons (bad economy, no jobs, confusion, post-undergraduate stress (pus), etc.) Instead you took rejection as a sign that you needed to improve yourself, and boy did you ever. This is a strength that you can - and should - play up in your applicaiton.
