Hi Lauren! Thanks for your videos, you helped me out with my grad school essay and now I'm in England doing my masters in landscape architecture :-). I'm votin A for international fellowships/scholarships. I'm not sure where to start! Also, please consider running for office someday! :D
It depends on what you are up to. I did a fellowship that had a full Saturday class once a month, plus homework and events. But this fellowship taught me more real world skills than grad school did. It also was a super powerful networking tool and helped me get my first job out of grad school. I also did another fellowship that was only for the summer and paid well.
Hi, do you provide feedback on essays for getting into undergrad programs or only graduate programs? My sister is applying to schools for undergrad. Thanks.
I mostly focus on grad school, since there are a significant amount of resources for undergrad students. I would recommend your sister start with her high school resources, which are free. If she would like additional support, you can check out my office hours at laurenvaldez.com/events.
Highly Informative! Thank you Lauren
You're so welcome!

Can international students also apply for it?
Would it make sense to do a fellowship while juggling full time work AND grad school?? 🤯 Are they exhaustive & time consuming??
