About

Daniel Chatham

InsideTheAdcom exists to provide resources and support for graduate school applicants.  It is filled with insights related to applying to grad school and creating strong applications (from the perspective of an admissions insider).  I have helped candidates apply to many different types of programs and universities  (a partial list is below) If you would like personal coaching for your applications, contact me.

I’ve been a professional school admissions officer since 2001 and am former Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid at the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Sciences and Director of Admission and Recruitment for the University of California’s Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies.  Over the last decade I’ve worked with thousands of candidates and applicants to business school, international relations professional programs, and professional science masters programs.  In that time I’ve come to believe that during the application process applicants should engage with the school more than they typically do.  I hope this site brings you valuable information that you may not have received through a typical application process and encourage you to comment or ask a question that you have been looking for an answer to.
