Ph.D. Applicant Feedback Program
Several current I School Ph.D. students have volunteered to provide application feedback to Ph.D. program applicants.
Applicants may receive one round of meaningful written feedback on their resume and application essays from a current Ph.D. student. Participating in the I School Applicant Feedback Program is completely voluntary and is separate from the Ph.D. admissions process. Comments and advice are designed to help prospective applicants better communicate their skills and strengths in the essay and resume, and to make a more informed decision about the I School graduate program.
All applicants are invited to request feedback, but we especially welcome feedback requests from communities that have historically been underrepresented in higher education, including BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color), non-cisgender people, LGBTQIA+/queer applicants, applicants with disabilities, first-generation college students, and applicants from low-income backgrounds.
Dates & Deadlines
Form opens: October 1, 2024
Request deadline: November 1, 2024
Students aim to return feedback within a week. In the event of unforeseen delays, we will contact you to provide an update.
Note: The I School Applicant Feedback Program is offered 100% by students. Student participants are not trained by and do not represent the admissions committee or the I School administration. Students are volunteers, and the feedback does not guarantee admission to the I School.
