Graduate Schools
If your plans include graduate school immediately upon leaving Carleton, you should have a major research paper completed by the end of your junior year. You'll need this polished research effort for successful application to graduate schools. If you plan to wait a year or more before applying to graduate school your comps research will usually more than suffice.
The AAA and ASA guides to graduate departments are available in the SOAN Lounge for browsing. You may also wish to use the U.S. News rankings for graduate programs in Sociology.
