This concise booklet explains the graduate admissions process, including how to choose the most marketable degree, how to contact faculty, find insider information about the university, what to say and NOT say in the personal essay, how to overcome poor grades or test scores and how and where to find funding to pay for it all. A fun but informative read from a former university professor whose own graduate education brought her over $100,000 in grants and scholarships (despite a lousy GPA) (19,080 words).
