In the last couple of weeks, people have reached out to me with several questions:
“When do I start preparing to apply to graduate school?”
“How do I prepare my list of colleges?”
“What do I include in my SOP?”
“Is this the right program for me?”
“How do I get into an Ivy League school?”
College applications can be daunting.
All the above questions are valid. And NO, it does not mean you’re confused.
If anything, you’re curious and ambitious.
You want to put your best foot forward while presenting yourself to the admissions committee.
And that takes a lot of commitment.
So pat yourself on the back. Take pride in asking questions. Get all the help you need.
You’ve got one shot. Give it all you’ve got!

If you have any questions about the Graduate Admissions process, I’m here if you need me :
Maynooth University has a long history in both adult education and widening access to higher ed. We’re very lucky to have had invested staff like Michael Kenny from the Dept of Adult and Community Education who have, for many years, championed RPL as a means to allow individuals return to education.
Have a listen to Michael as he outlines the transformative potential that RPL can have for those whom the formal education system did not work or did not suit.
At Maynooth University, we value the uniqueness of your learning and all that you can bring to the table. We recognise the different learning journeys we have all taken and we want to hear from those who have learned in a real-life context. In short, we value you.
From the wide-eyed wonder of kindergarten to the focused pursuit of postgraduate studies, RV Educational Institutions empowers students with endless possibilities at every stage of their academic journey. Across our 22+ institutions, we foster a learning environment that ignites curiosity, critical thinking and innovation.
