About Grad School…

Graduate school is challenging, especially for those with non-traditional backgrounds. Recognizing the difficulties I faced during my PhD application cycle, I am committed to sharing experiences that are not widely accessible, particularly in Brazil.

If you are considering applying for a Ph.D. in Political Science in the United States and have questions, please feel free to reach out.

Make sure to read “Applying to Political Science PhD Programs: A guide to international students.” This post was written by Dr. Mariana Carvalho, and it is very informative.

Please note that I am still completing my PhD coursework, so there may be times when I need additional time to respond. Nevertheless, I will do my best to assist you.

*Important: this initiative is independent and has no connection with my department. My goal is to help individuals apply broadly based on their research interests.
