How important is a minor when applying to graduate school? ?

Posted by admin
JHutton asked:


I am applying for Psy.D, Ph.D, and Masters programs in Psychology, and I was wondering if anyone knew how big of a role minors have in admissions decisions.
Instead of working more towards my statistics minor, I was thinking of focusing more on psychology research, which I know is important for graduate school admissions. Any advice?

Thanks in advance!

      For psychology with minor in political science which had absolutely nothing to graduate school for psychology with anything and think they based acceptance on my minor on my psych gpa test scores awards and essays good luck.
