  • Due to popular demand, I'm sharing some thoughts on what I think made my grad school application successful.
    This application got me into ALL of the graduate programs I applied to, including Stanford (where I will be going this fall!), Harvard Kennedy School, Columbia SIPA, John Hopkins SAIS, Tufts Fletcher, and UofT Munk x SciencesPo dual degree.

    Hi everyone! Thanks for so much love on this video!! Stanford has been extremely busy so I haven't had time to reply to or record additional videos answering any of your questions but will get to that later on this summer. Subscribe to be notified of new videos :)

    I watched this vlog prior to my application to my dream Ivy & got admitted to Columbia's Master in Health Administration (MHA). I have an undergrad from the Philippines but had relevant work experience in the US, UK & my home country. Columbia's MHA is the only grad program I applied for and your tips were definitely helpful. Thank you!!!

    Hi Angela:) You seem like the sweetest person inside out, congrats on all your offers! I'm an undergraduate at King's looking to do the same type of trajectory of programmes at graduate school so this video really helped, I didn't even know where to start for the application process! I would love to see more obviously if you have the time, best of luck to you

    Hello Angela, I am currently studying Bsc of computer science, in Nottingham Trent university (in UK). Do you think it is possible to get accepted into Yale computer science graduate program?
    Upd: I guess the question that I tried to ask was - how much of an effect does my Nottingham university play on my acceptance?
