Panelists included (left to right) Jamie Skender, Liz Marsh, Angie Ricciardi, Katie Cross, and Kristen Lane.
Not that you all don't love being at Allegheny, but, eventually, you will have to venture into the outside world. Cognitive Group was very excited to invite four seniors and an '08 alum who have recently gone through this transition process to talk to us about their experiences. The students included Katie Cross, who has been accepted to a Masters program in Speech Pathology, Angie Ricciardi, who was accepted to a Masters of Education program, Kristen Lane, who has just accepted a position with the FBI, Liz March, who was accepted to a Cognitive psych PhD program at Arizona State University, and Jamie Skender who was accepted into a Masters of Education early intervention program for children with disabilities with an autism specialization.
After a brief introduction of each program, the meeting was opened up for questions and answers. Discussion centered on thinking about what programs to pursue, how to find them, the application process, the GREs, and what it was like to interview. The panelists also shared what they were most excited about in terms of their new programs and pursuits.
If you were not able to join us, you can still benefit from this great conversation. Just follow this link Life After Allegheny to listen to our discussion.
Thanks so much to all the panelists for sharing their experiences. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
