常见问题
Start by investigating the program’s website for admission requirements, 学习目标, 课程与课程. The list of available programs, as well as the names of the directors, can be found here. The program director will be the best person to contact for more information and guidance. If you’re interested in multiple programs and are unsure of the path to take, it is appropriate to reach out to multiple directors to explore which program will be the best fit.
While we do not have specific graduate admissions advisors, our graduate Program Directors will be glad to discuss the different program options with you. These experts in their field are the best resource about the program and can also help with licensing and certification questions. They will also direct you to another program if they think it would be a better fit.
We often receive inquiries from students uncertain of the differences between master’s in 社会工作 or in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. 请 请看此页 for information on distinctions between the two.
If you are unsure of where to start, you may also 电子邮件 the 研究生办公室 at graduatestudies@tanxiqiao.net and we will be glad to assist and direct your inquiry.
Unlike the undergraduate process, there is no centralized office that manages graduate admissions. All prospective students apply to a graduate program through CollegeNet. 该项目的招生委员会, typically the Program Director and faculty, reviews applications and makes admission recommendations to the appropriate school’s Academic Dean. Students will be notified of the decision by the Dean of the School.
All applications are processed online through a system called CollegeNet. 可以启动该进程 通过这个链接. We do not have a physical application form.
当你申请时出现的问题, please contact the 研究生办公室 at 401-456-9723 or graduatestudies@tanxiqiao.net.
Yes, but you will need to create a second CollegeNet account under another 电子邮件. 请 contact the Graduate Studies office and we can make this a bit easier by transferring some information from the initial application.
简历, 个人陈述, and the names and 电子邮件s of all recommenders must be entered before 应用程序 can be submitted. Any other documents may be added to your application after submission, 包括成绩单和考试成绩.
请 note that applications won’t be reviewed until all documents are submitted and 应用程序 is marked as complete. 申请人 are advised to check on the status of their application to make sure all required materials are submitted.
All recommendations should come from an academic or professional contact. We do not accept personal recommendations from friends or family members. 请 see individual program for specific recommendation requirements.
The recommendation must come directly from the recommender. The application will ask you to provide the name and 电子邮件 of your recommender. The recommenders will then receive an 电子邮件 from CollegeNet containing a link to upload the pdf or word document of their letter, as well as a brief multiple-choice evaluation. The recommender must submit their letter directly to CollegeNet.
如果有问题, 比如更换推荐人, CollegeNet has an 电子邮件 for recommendation supports: lor_help@collegenet.com. 如需进一步协助，请发电子邮件 graduatestudies@tanxiqiao.net.
While each program has specific requirements for their 个人陈述, it is important to address your professional goals and how the program will benefit your ability to fulfill those goals. You may want to provide insight into what has brought you to these objectives, as well as what you hope to accomplish once you have completed the graduate degree.
While some programs do not have a specific length or prompt for 个人陈述s, it is recommended that you provide enough information for the admissions committee to gain an understanding of you as an applicant. Take care to ensure the statement is concise and that all information is relevant to your candidacy. 通常, 个人陈述s will be 1-2 pages long but be sure to check the requirements for each program.
Some great resources on how to write a graduate-level 个人陈述:
Your 个人陈述: Getting Started - esball官方网’s 职业发展中心
10 Tips for Writing a Grad School 个人陈述 – USA Today
How to Write a Graduate School 个人陈述 – Kaplan

We offer 个人陈述 workshops at our annual Graduate Studies Open house, held in January. If you are a current RIC undergraduate, you may be interested in utilizing the services of the 职业发展中心 for assistance with the essay.
Note: It is also possible to search the internet for examples of graduate school statements. While this may offer insight into the structure and content of a 个人陈述, it is important to note that these are exemplary samples of writing and may have even been written by professionals to guide applicants. 请 do not compare your writing or experiences to those in published examples.
While you have the option to upload unofficial transcripts through CollegeNet, acceptance into a degree program requires official transcripts. We accept both physical and digital copies, but official transcripts must be sealed and received directly from the educational institution.
esball官方网 transcripts will be added after your application is submitted.
