It’s competitive out there. A few simple tips for those applying for #gradschool in clinical psych: (1) be yourself, (2) reach out with a gentle introduction, (3) spend time explaining why you and your potential advisor are a good match. (1/2)

You will spend the next 5+ years together and a lifetime of potential mentorship, collaboration, & friendship. My grad students are compassionate, fun, kind, & dedicated, above all else. They are also super inspiring. Daniela Sarmiento Hernandez, MA Meghan (Carlsen) Evans Sepideh Alavi, Ph.D. (2/2)
