There are professors at both Harvard and Yale that I really want to work with in both Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience. However, from what I've seen, Ivy League Universities usually only accept people with Bachelors Degrees from prestigious universities.
I started my undergraduate degree at a women's college in Virginia, and transferred to Virginia Commonwealth University during my junior year. I am currently in the Honors College at VCU, and will be graduating Summa Cum Laude (or Magna Cum Laude depending on how the semester spans out) after this upcoming fall semester. I have one publication, and research experience at my current university. However, I know that VCU is not a terribly prestigious university. Will this work against me? Is there anything else I should do before applying?
