resume updated
essay drafted
transcript request forms downloaded
letters of recommendation requested

Ok, GRE’s done. Here is the timeline:

As soon as I get back to HN, I will narrow down my list of schools to apply to. I’m shooting for four.

Over the summer, I will work on writing my personal statement and tweaking it for various schools.

When fall comes, and schools in the US are back in session, I will contact my colleges about my transcripts and my former advisors about letters of recommendations. At the same time, I will obtain letters of recommendation from current employers, and former if necessary.

I will submit applications before I set off traveling at the end of October.

I’m hoping to go back to school in September of 2009 for a masters in International Education. I’ve found six programs that suit me well. The actual name of the degree varies a bit from program to program to program.
