Dotlock Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Hello, Recently I contacted a potential supervisor about whether she would be interested in being my PhD supervisor. Within a couple hours I received a response, where she said that she was interested and would like to discuss my ideas further. However, she was travelling and asked me to contact her again near the end of the month. (Also, I mentioned a book that she recently published and I read a couple months ago, but accidentally put the 'wrong' title of her book. She had the 'wrong' title of her book on her website - the original version before it was published, very similar to the published title but a couple words switched. Anyway, she was 'curious' as to how I read this early version that wasn't published.) I know that there are many topics in the forums about the first email to a potential supervisor, but what advice/ideas would anyone have for contacting the supervisor again after a few weeks? Thanks!

ktel Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 You're definitely over complicating the situation. Just remind her of your previous e-mail and that she asked you to contact her again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tip3r Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 When I was applying for M.S. admission I found myself in this situation often. I would include your previous email and her response as a reminder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
