It's All About Timing

Friday November 28, 2008
Is graduate school right for you? Sometimes that's not the right question. Instead ask yourself "Should I go to grad school NOW?" Not all students go straight from undergrad to graduate school. Many take a year or more off. During that year or two you could improve your academic credentials, get great experience, or simply see what your career options are so that you make an educated discussion as to whether graduate school is right for you. Remember, you don't have to decide now; it's about timing.
