Alumni * 4 = ???

<p>I will be done with my physics degree by the end of freshman year of college (I've taken college courses in highschool.) If I complete my GE's in one year, could I conceivably apply to graduate school every year of undergrad? For example, could I apply to a grad school at the end of each year of undergrad (so, 4 times total)? </p>

<p>Assuming GE's take 2 years, could I apply to grad school at the end of my soph, junior and senior years? </p>

<p>Wouldn't this put me at a great advantage for getting into the grad school I want?</p>

<p>You apply to graduate school after you graduate. Usually, people only do that once, but once you’ve graduated you can apply as many times as you want.</p>

<p>Most schools are going to require two years of residency as an undergrad. You’ll need to check with the schools you’re interested in to see how many of your credits will transfer. </p>

<p>Whether it will be advantageous or not really depends on the school you’re graduating from and the program you’re applying to. Generally speaking PhD programs are going to be interested in grades and recommendations. If you haven’t spent enough time as an undergrad to have developed relationships with your professors, that won’t be an advantage for you.</p>

<p>Ah, okay. So really I should just find a university which allows me to take graduate courses (or take all the Physics and Astronomy and Math courses offered by a LAC) and just develop relations/research with professors?</p>

<p>That would be best.</p>
