Also Q-Ball:
You should be preparing to get letters of recommendation from credible sources. Depending on what you find out (via Sorors Director and 411's advice) they can be from professors or employers in direct supervisorial positions. I focus on this because the transcripts, GRE, personal statement and "personal" paperwork were easy for me. Just a matter of gathering it all up. But when it came to letters of rec, I had graduated 5 years prior to applying, and many professors had left, etc. Luckily I was in the field in which I planned to get the degree so getting letters from my supervisor/other people with advanced degrees with whom I collaborated was suffucient.
Some grad schools say "professors" ONLY. So you wanna find out.
Also look at transcripts and requirements for GPA. That way if anything is deficient, you can make up work (at a JC) or at the University to which you are applying or ask about any conditional admission policies. Hopefully your grades are up to snuff, but just in case...
PEACE
