Oluchi - Fully Funded PhD at Stanford
"Going through this program, aside from helping you get into your dream PhD program, it also helps you think differently. So when you start your PhD I already know what I want to do. I know the right people I want to meet. I know professors I want to work with. I already have an idea of what my committee should look like. I think it helps you beyond just applying to school. It's definitely worth the investment."
Let me know if this sounds like you…
- You’ve got some experience in your field, or maybe even a masters

Yes, I'm ready to get my PhDTaylor - Fully Funded PhD at Columbia Teachers College
"I decided to pursue a PhD again after not getting in the first round. It was really scary and looking back there were lots of things I would have done differently, so I really wanted to kind of um set myself up and have as much support as possible in the process for round two. Now, after the program, I mean it's very different in that I have achieved a lifelong goal getting into my PhD, and before the program I was in a state of just feeling really scared about the whole thing. I realized how much I needed a community and people who really knew what they were doing to help me."
Debanjana- Fully Funded PhD at Texas A&M
"I wasn't confident at all. And I was even ready to keep continuing in my previous institution with my PhD. But after going through this process and with all of your guidance, I got into my dream program in my dream college and so it's kind of my dream come true. One of the things that really helped me was how you guided me with networking with professors."
Sarah- Fully Funded PhD at Cornegie Mellon
"I am so thankful for the push that you gave us to really reach out and the templates of how to have a conversation with them because those conversations directly informed my research proposals and statement of purpose and those pieces were so much stronger because of these discussions I had"
