I am applying for a PhD program at Ruhr and getting ready to send in my application materials to the department. The application materials include: curriculum vitae, short answer questions, application essay, and a writing sample. I will also be sending a cover letter to accompany my application materials. My writing sample is way too long (35 pages). Wish me luck!
