<p>Hello,
I'm looking at numerous graduate school's ph.d programs for sociology. I noticed most schools do not require a CV or resume with your application packet. How will they know my accomplishments, ie. papers written, thesis, honors, etc?</p>
<p>Would it be wrong to send a copy of my resume or CV along with my packet? Should work experience be included?</p>
<p>thanks,
matt</p>
<p>i think most programs assume that you will include a cv. even if they dont, it could only help you.</p>
<p>Many of my applications have a space for "anything else which you think should be included" -- I'm including a copy of my CV in that space. Just make sure it's as succinct as possible.</p>
<p>Also, most application forms I've been working through have boxes in which to include each category of resume items: for example, they have a "publications and research" section, a "grants, fellowships, and academic awards" section, a "work and other professional experience" section, etc. It might be helpful to include a resume in addition, but you might want to go look through the application forms once again to see whether they do ask for this information in other ways.</p>
<p>Although not required, I believe most PhD programs will expect you to submit a CV, even if they don't explicitly request it.</p>
