Gaining admission to a Ph.D. program is exceptionally challenging as universities receive a great deal more applicants than they have appointments. Many factors dictate the number of appointments, and the admissions committee must choose the strongest qualified candidates that will be successful at completing the degree.  Therefore, a doctoral studies candidacy package requires that all aspects of the application speak the same language – the statement of purpose, recommendations, Curriculum Vitae, and interview cohesively reflect your ambitions in your field.  

 
 

At Sia, we are your partner, helping you navigate all aspects of your application process, including helping you put together your candidacy package that speaks of your story and your ambitions.
