What advice would you offer to someone thinking about graduate school?
The transition from undergrad to graduate school can be difficult. You have much more responsibilities and an intense workload, but you also get to learn about what you really love. During those stressful times, try to remember why you’re doing what you’re doing, and don’t be afraid to reach out to your fellow classmates or program faculty, everyone is there to help support you!
