Demystifying Grad School - November 15, 6pm
The Graduate History Student Association at New York University is putting together a two-part panel for students considering graduate school in the humanities on November 15th 2020 at 6PM, on Zoom. Here’s the
eventbrite sign-up link for it.
Whether you’re finishing up your PhD application for December, applying for a Master’s in the Spring 2022 semester, or looking towards a PhD next cycle, the NYU graduate history student association is putting on a panel for you!
This panel will give people considering graduate school in the humanities a look into the application process and some tips about how to game the elitist and exclusionary process of admissions at major universities.
It will consist of a presentation by faculty who evaluate graduate applications to the NYU and Northern Arizona University history departments on what that process looks like and then a panel discussion and question-and-answer session with current PhD and Master’s students on all things graduate applications and personal statements.
Bring your questions, your anger, your excitement and your despair and let us try to demystify this process together!
Demystifying Grad School
Monday, November 15, 6 :00PM
After the event we will be sending around a collection of resources that students at NYU have put together for people in every process of their graduate application journey.

Guide to Registration for English & Dramatic Lit Students
1. Find out when your unique registration time begins!
--> Check your enrollment appointment day and time by signing into your Student Center and clicking on "details" in the "Enrollment Dates" section. Appointment days and times are based on the Eastern Time zone.
2. Add your classes to your cart, then validate them!
--> And validate them again 24 hours before you register in case any pre-reqs have changed. Click here for the guide. If Albert lets you know there is a problem with one of your courses, reach out to the proper folks for assistance (see #3).
3. If you run into pre-req issues (or similar), reach out to the department hosting the class for assistance!
--> For example, For ENGL-UA or DRLIT-UA class help, reach out to me. If you want to take a SCA-UA course, reach out to them! The Creative Writing Program is a separate dept--reach out to them for help enrolling in any CRWRI-UA class.
4. If you are WAIT-LISTED for your preferred class but want to enroll in something else in the meantime...set up a swap!
--> This means everything will go smoothly if it is your turn to get off the waitlist and into your class. If you don't do this and have too many credits for/a schedule conflict with your waitlisted class, you won't automatically be added, and will hold up the list for others. Click here for the guide.
--> If you receive a permission number for a class, you will need to add it to the class as you add it to your cart. Here are the
instructions for use.
6. Mentorship Program for English Majors and Minors: ENGL-UA 999
--> This is a zero-credit class, and is optional--however we strongly encourage you to enroll so we can work with you next semester to pair you with a faculty member and invite you to special programming. Enroll yourself in the section that matches your "year:" 1. freshmen, 2. sophomores, 3. juniors, 4. seniors.
