Deciding If Graduate School Is Right For You
When thinking about life after college, many college students wrestle with the inevitable question of “what will I do after graduation?” For some, the choice is fairly straightforward – they plan to get a job and start paying back their school loans. Others may have a clear sense of pursuing a career in law, medicine, or college teaching and therefore entering into a graduate or professional school is the logical next step for them. For many students, however, the decision to go on to graduate school is not so clear cut.

You may be considering graduate school and have many questions about the entrance process, or about your decision in general. The goal of this section is to help you in your decision-making process. Included in the menu to the left are a few questions to ask yourself, a list of sources that can provide more information about specific schools or programs you may be considering, and an easy to follow schedule for applying to graduate school.
