Graduate Program Considerations
• Does it make sense to buy test taker names?• What is the structure of your administrative
offices?- What programs require the GRE?- What programs have room to grow?- Do you have score band requirements?
• How much money do you have?• How will you communicate the results?

• SHSU uses ETS GRE Score Search Service via Hobsons- We receive bio/demo and target graduate program

Chemistry and Biology names for this program• Consider buying scores for programs that don’t
