Committee Ready offers educational coaching, not academic or legal advice. We are independent and not affiliated with any university. Your program's rules always come first.
Educational coaching, not advice
Committee Ready shares general information and coaching prompts to help doctoral students think through and strengthen their dissertation proposals. Nothing we publish is academic, legal, or professional advice for your situation.
Your program comes first
Requirements differ between universities, programs and committees. Your program's handbook and templates, your chair's guidance, your institutional review board (IRB) and your university's policies always take priority over anything we publish. If our content conflicts with them, follow your program. When in doubt, ask your chair.
Not affiliated with any university
Committee Ready is independent. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by any university, college, professional body or AI company. Any examples we use are invented and do not describe any real student, study or institution.
About AI tools
AI tools can produce errors, invent sources and reflect bias. Treat their output as a starting point for your own thinking, check every claim and source yourself, and follow your program's AI policy. You are responsible for the work you submit.
No guaranteed results
Using the Proposal Checklist, our prompts or our newsletter does not guarantee that your proposal will be approved, that you will finish by a certain date, or any other outcome.
Sponsors and links
If we ever include a sponsor or an affiliate link, we will label it clearly. A link to another resource does not mean we endorse everything about it.
