  • Enroll in a test preparation program or begin self study for entrance exams, i.e. GRE, GMAT, LSAT, and MCAT. You may wish to plan to take the graduate admissions test more than once.
  • Visit school web sites (or send for and read college catalogs) and gather applications for graduate school, assistantships, and financial aid.
  • Entrance requirements may include writing application essays, letters of recommendation, and entrance examinations.
  • Programs have different deadlines for submitting materials, so make a timeline for having all materials submitted on time.
  • If possible, visit schools of interest.
