I'm in a PhD program, so I applied through their formal application process, but there were many kind souls along the way who gave me the feedback I needed. I emailed my advisor beforehand to ask her if she'd be interested in working with me. I also asked at least 5 professors and 2 PhD students to look over my personal statement, and 2 native-Spanish-speaker friends helped look over my writing sample (in Spanish).
