How can I combine my professional work experience, undergraduate major, and minor to become a competitive applicant for a master’s program in Industrial/Organizational Psychology?
I am a mid-career fashion industry professional transitioning into academia and education. I have extensive experience in production, quality control, cross-functional collaboration, and organizational processes within the fashion industry. I am currently completing my undergraduate degree in Communications (Rhetoric & Advocacy) at Baruch College and a psychology minor with the goal of pursuing graduate study in Industrial/Organizational Psychology right after obtaining my bachelor's degree. My long-term goal is to combine industry expertise, research, and education — potentially through teaching, consulting, or organizational development work focused on workplace systems, leadership, and decision-making within creative industries. As an adult student and working professional making a career pivot, I would appreciate advice on: -what experiences or skills I should prioritize during my undergraduate studies, -how to position prior industry experience for graduate admissions, and -what makes a nontraditional applicant competitive for I-O psychology master’s programs.

Is it a good idea to go study in the US?
After I got a remote full time job(where I get my work done in about 20/30 hrs a week, but paid for 40) I was looking to go study in the US. Starting at Santa Monica college and then if needed transfer to UCLA, I want to work as an actor and writer in Hollywood but still have a good degree to fall back upon. So my plan was to double major in acting and a STEM career(like some engineering, since I am pretty good at math and physics having studied them at an Italian high school where I came from) Will this be a good idea? Will I be able to actually get hired in the US? will it be possible for me to start a acting career in LA this way(note I also already have a American accent and good proficiency in English), my biggest fear is not being able to find any jobs in the US and maybe if I stay here in Italy and get a degree here I will be able to get a secure job in Italy(even tho they ain’t paid good aka 40k year pretax as a ceiling, meaning that is the highest earning potential after years of experience). Tell me what you think
