patricia47 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I got AN ACCEPTANCE with my horrible GRE scores. The program admits people into the masters, and then I must apply to the phd program. How difficult is it to move into a phd program from a masters at the same school? I got in. Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minnesotan Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Way to go! I can only comment on the university I am currently attending, but here it is much easier to get into Ph.D programs if you took your master's here as well (in a similar discipline). It makes sense that if you get good grades and make the connections you need to make, you'd have a much easier time getting in than if you applied out of nowhere and nobody knew what you were like.

mydragonflies Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 CONGRATULATIONS! Although I have no personal experience from which to speak, it makes sense to me that it will be a lot easier for you to get into their PhD program once you have been successful in the MA program. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
