PhD programs to accept me?
#11
(11-20-2017, 04:25 PM)Ideas Wrote: I will only enroll in a PhD program if I'm motivated and committed. I haven't decided on what yet, because I'm not even done with my Bachelor's. I was just checking that my Masters plan won't ruin all my chances for a PhD. I'm glad to know that some online schools would accept me with the NA Masters.

The Masters program requires a 3.0 to graduate, so I will have at least that.

When you work on your master's, you'll be a different candidate than you are now. You'll have graded credit at the graduate level that will be part of your PhD application. You may even have entrance exam scores depending on your field. You master's performance will be a greater piece of the puzzle than your bachelor's is for a master's.

A master's is still being a student of the field. You're a learner in the process. The distinction is that when you are a doctoral candidate, is that you're adding to the body of knowledge and advancing the body of knowledge within the field. Yes, you'll have to be motivated, but you'll also have to have something to contribute.
