PsyClub launches Graduate Student Mentoring Program
By | Published: November 2, 2011
The PsyClub recently launched the “Graduate Student Mentoring Program.” This program is for students interested in attending graduate school. Undergraduate students can pick the brains of graduate students who already successfully navigated the graduate application process.
The program consists of six informal meetings in which undergraduate and graduate students hang out and discuss questions about applying to graduate school such as “What do graduate schools look for in an applicant?” or “What is the difference between a PsyD and a PhD?” or “What do you put into a Statement of Purpose?” or even “Should you take a few years off before going to graduate school?” Each meeting focuses on a unique theme that guides the discussion. Students can attend all meetings or choose those which will benefit them most.
Undergraduate members of the Graduate School Mentoring Program are each assigned an individual mentor. Mentors serve as personal guides who assist students throughout the application process. Mentors can help students develop a curriculum vita (CV), edit statements of purpose, and find a research assistant position to gain valuable research experience.
Meetings are held on Monday nights at 6pm in 420 Shillman. Interested students with questions about the mentoring program should contact Krista Hill, graduate student, at hill.kr@husky.neu.edu. Thanks to Krista for organizing this terrific program!
