Seniors looking for graduate school advice please look at the FAQ page under Graduate School, to see if any of your questions can be answered. ( http://jmucsdundergraduateadvising.blogspot.com/p/faqs.html ) A few questions that I can answer from my own experience will be listed below. I have office hours next week on Wednesday (9/4) from 11am-Noon, if anyone wants advice or needs to talk about the application process! -Kimberly LaVacca, Peer Advisor  What is the last date I should take the GRE? Because of the processing time of the GRE to get your scores, and then send scores to CSDCAS/other applications, I would give yourself AT LEAST two months before your first application is due. But I honestly would not wait, get it done as soon as you can, it will give you a lot of peace of mind. When should I submit my applications? Most of my deadlines were Mid-January, and I had my applications submitted by early December. I know some people who submitted earlier some later

Hello CSD! This is Kimberly LaVacca, and I will be the Peer Advisor for the undergraduate students this year. I have updated the "Peer Advisor" page with my office hours for the next two weeks, as well as the location for where to meet. Once I know my full schedule I will be able to have consistent hours for the rest of the semester. I look forward to meeting you all and answering any questions!
