This research examines the experiences of eleven women in eight different doctoral programs at a large, Midwestern university in the united States. Qualitative methods were used to collect and analyze narrative data. Findings indicate that women progress through doctoral programs in distinct stages; during these stages women make meaning of their experiences through developing important relationships with peers, faculty, and significant others. Progress to the completion of the doctorate degree in these eight academic departments was supported by prior socialization, clear expectations, mentoring relationships with faculty, and supportive relationships with peers.
