How to find out where people went to grad school from undergrad

Graduate School

<p>Is there any sort of resource anyone knows about that shows data on where a grad program's accepted applicants came from? For example, I want to see how many people from my school have been accepted for graduate study at X school. I've checked with my program and they claim to not keep exit stats like that. Not sure if this exists, but I thought I would ask.</p>

<p>There are no such statistics kept.</p>

<p>There’s no database of info like this that’s pan-grad/UG school. However, my grad program (like others) lists the names of the current students and their UG institutions on the program website. So, if you have a particular grad school program in mind, check out their website. (Also, bec. I went to a small school, I could find out what alum from my major did after graduation if I asked our director).</p>

<p>Look at the CVs of students on the job market in a particular year, or on graduate students’ websites. Grad schools generally don’t track that data and if they do, they probably won’t release it.</p>

<p>Yup, if you’re up for going into every departmental website and mining everyone’s CV, you could very well be the pioneer to make such a database!</p>

<p>My grad school has pictures of the last few entering classes, along with which sub discipline and what undergrad they came from.</p>

<p>The last two posts sound like an excellent premise for a movie about a social networking site where you can rate whether a person is smart or not based on their appearance and where they went to undergrad.</p>

<p>I mean–with a thick British accent, I think “smot o’ not” would be a great idea for a site.</p>

<p>Good question! Sometimes an undergrad’s career services will have (student provided) information about which graduate programs students have moved on to. Check it out : )</p>
