SUMMARY:Dean’s Session: Everything You Should Know About Grad School (That They Never Told You)
DESCRIPTION:So, you’re thinking about grad school! Maybe there were a couple of courses you just couldn’t get enough of, or a topic that really interested you? Perhaps there’s a subject or a specialization in which you want to become an expert? Maybe you just want to polish up your critical and communication skills before conquering the job market? There are many fantastic reasons to consider pursuing a graduate degree… and, there can almost as many reasons to feel a little intimidated by the idea. In this session, FGS Dean Alice MacLachlan will take you through everything you need to know that no one told you, streamlining and simplifying the idea of grad school and the process of applying. Join us and find out:\nWhat are masters and doctorate degrees?\nWhat exactly does a grad student do?\nHow do I know which school or degree is right for me?\nHow do I get from idea to application?\nWhom do I talk to if I have questions about grad school?\nAbout my application?\nHow do I approach a potential program or advisor\nWhat does a grad school application look like?\nWhat will they ask for?\nCan I afford grad school?\nHow much might it cost?\nTips for a strong application\nTips for choosing between multiple programs\nHow to manage anxiety and expectations\nThis session is happening as part of Experience Grad York.
