Please help me... (very easy question:-)

<p>I study at a European liberal arts college and I have a question concerning graduate admission processes. </p>

<p>If I graduate from college in May 2007, may I apply to graduate schools in Fall 2006? Or maybe I have to wait for getting my bachelor's and start applying in Fall 2007?</p>

<p>Please help me. Cause I am a bit confused. I applied to colleges in the US in my last year of high school and I thought it is the same way with graduate schools. I mean that you apply in your last year before graduating. However, a friend of mine told me that, first, you gotta have your degree and then you can apply.</p>

<p>Well, I wanted to find some info on websites of schools that I am thinking of, but information there is rather unclear. Please help.</p>

<p>Your friend is definitely wrong. Most people apply during your last year of college.</p>

<p>^ Yes. All that graduate schools require is that you have your Bachelors degree by the time you begin grad school. You don't have to finish it by the time you fill out the applications.</p>
