architecture 604 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Hey guys! I know this has been brought up before, but I was wondering, is it alright to contact potential advisors and just say: this is my work, this is what I want to accomplish. I like your work for this reason, these are the intersections between the two and what I can learn from you and the program. Can you tell me if X school is a good fit? I'm applying to Masters programs so I don't know how accepted reaching out to professors is. What do you all think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ||| Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Reaching out to potential supervisors is an excellent idea, do your best to personalize the email as well. I like your work "specific example and note" and feel it strongly relates to what I wish to do in graduate school "xxxx". All in all, you are doing the right move.

Borden Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I did that last round, and got answers from about half of them, which I think is a pretty good ratio. My only hedge on it right now is that a lot of professors may still be out of the office still, since it's still summer, and maybe in September you'd have better luck?
