I Sent Email And Got Favorable Response From Professors
By HSB
I had posted few articles about contacting professors by email for Graduate school admission. One of the article was Email Template to Contact Professors. One of the reader used the template and got positive response from the professors and shes wondering who to proceed next. Here’s her comment
Hey,
Thank you so much! that of course, I did and got favorable responses. I am a graduate student in India doing masters in Clinical Psychology. I plan to apply for the Fall 09 for masters in Psychology (clinical or counseling). Like i mentioned earlier, I have written to a couple of professors (only those with whose research interests matched with mine) and did receive encouraging responses. Now, I want to take it further and I am a little confused. My GRE scores aren’t great (860 total) so, I am very reluctant to tell them my GRE scores and then further the conversations along the path of needed financial aid. However, I have work experience in the field of mental health for almost a year (clinical and non clinical setting). I have one research paper presented in a national conference and in preparation to go in for a publication (either in a national or an international journal). My under graduation scores are good too (72% aggregate and 81% only in psychology). I am also getting them evaluated by WES.
So please let me know, if i stand a good chance in the following universities and also advise on how you think I should take it forward from here:
CSU, Fresno
CSU, Fullerton
University of West Georgia (most preferred)
Barry University
UT, Tyler
Chicago School of Professional Psychology
MTSU
Western Kentucky
Augusta UniversityI apologize for this really long email, but, I really am in a fix and need some direction. Please feel free to ask me any other information you think is required. At this point, let me tell you, like any other Indian student, there isn’t anything much I can really do without an aid or a TA/RA. Please help…

i am from bangladesh university of engineering and technology(BUET).
i am in my last semester.i sent a mail to a university professor directly.he answered like this
“”"Thank you very much for your interest. As for now, I do expect openings in fall 2010 but I can not guarantee it by 100% at the moment (it could be January, 2011). Any way, I encourage you to apply through university website.
If you proceed, you may contact me next spring to discuss the possibility of your joining my group. Given that you will get your degree this September, please consider also other possibilities of joining our Department earlier.”"”"
