Motivation to pursue a graduate degree at FSU

I have worked at several colleges and universities and am truly passionate about higher education. So, I decided to pursue a master's degree to expand my knowledge and career opportunities within the field of higher education. I chose Florida State University because of the great reputation of its master's program in Higher Education.

Career aspirations

I am passionate about higher education and student success. I hope to work in student focused areas, such as student affairs, upon graduation.

Advice for anyone considering graduate school

If you are considering graduate school, you should research several institutions. Select the program and school that most meets your educational and personal needs. Once accepted, make sure to research and inquire about scholarships, grants and fellowships.
