There are many good reasons to get a graduate degree – job preparedness, career advancement, a true passion for your subject. But how do you know the grad school facts from grad school myths?
We asked Keith Hassell, executive director of graduate admissions & retention at Sacred Heart University, to give us the real truth about graduate school.
“Graduate school is a good idea while I figure out what career I want.” False.
While putting off today what you can do tomorrow might seem like a winning option right now, attending grad school is not a wise procrastination strategy. Why? Because graduate school is quite different from college. Instead of taking a variety of classes in different subjects, you’ll be concentrating on one topic and perfecting a specialty. If you decide you don’t enjoy business analytics or public health, it’s not as easy to change course.
