MaggieG Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Which schools are on rolling basis admission? I'm considering start new application if there is any schools deadline not passed. Program: Child and Family Studies, Human development and family study Developmental psychology, Educational psychology. I'm afraid i have to face the fail year. I prepared for graduate school so long, however, now i only got rejection letter. I'm frustrated, the worst thing is i don't know how to face my family. They are so nice to me, so supportive. Now, i'm gonna let them down. Help if you know any schools are still accepting applicants. Thanks VERY much!
ThousandsHardships Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 This is just something that you will have to check one by one. I feel that in general, of the schools that I applied to at least, the lower ranked ones tend to accept later applications. However, a lot of these schools will have priority deadlines. If you apply now, even if they accept your application, there is no guarantee that it will be reviewed or considered. Also, many schools may not offer funding to students that they accept after their deadline for fellowships. At UC Davis, for instance, my program has an absolute deadline in May, but we have to submit applications by mid-January to be considered for funding. That being said, I do know someone who was rejected from all schools the first round and was accepted to a small school after going through another round of applications in March. Good luck! But don't despair if you don't get in. Taking time to work and get some experience in your field will be a great application booster should you choose to apply again next year. Don't worry about your family. I'm sure they will support you no matter what. You are going to grad school for yourself, not for your family.
Guest HEPhD13 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 You would also probably be better off posting in the psych specific thread since more people would be knowledgable about the kinds of programs you want to apply too. http://forum.thegradcafe.com/forum/8-psychology/http://forum.thegradcafe.com/forum/8-psychology/ Good luck!
