Attending graduate achool it a daap commitmani that ahculdnt ba takan lightly

Graduate school is hard work
Researching schools and
programs and keeping in
contact with potential
recommendation writers, such
as instructors and employers,
are the most important aspects
of preparing for graduate
school
A sincere interest and dedi
cation to a certain field is also
essential tor students planning
to go on to graduate study, be
cause graduate school involves
specialized knowledge and
concentrated study in one
area
"It a student has to ask the
question whether or not to go
to graduate school, they proba
bly shouldn’t go." said Marliss
Strange, associate director of
Academic Advising and Stu
dent Services "Students
should go because they love
the discipline ”
Applying 10 graouaie scnooi
is a long and complicated pro
cess. which should start in the
junior year The first step is to
make an honest evaluation of
career objectives. Strange said
a junior should create and
maintain contacts with potential
reference writers through
classroom work, volunteer
work, research and employ
ment
Research is very important
m applying to graduate school
and a school should be chosen
on the merits ot the specific,
specialized program desired,
not on the general rankings of
the department or school Stu
dents should do research care
fulty to choose a school that
will best suit their needs and
talents

"Researching a graduate
school should be done with the
same seriousness as applying
tor a job." Strange said. "You
need to ask the right questions,
dress appropriately and realize
that it takes time.”
Students need to work
closely with faculty in their de
partment and area of interest
lor advice and guidance on
where to go. The University’s
Graduate School also helps
steer students m the right di
rection and is a good place to
begin getting information on
schools and programs, said
Lisa Duba-Biedermann, stu
dent affairs program coordina
tor at the graduate school.
From there a student can look
at school catalogs in the library
and then should follow up di
rectly with the department at
the schools of interest.
A solid bachelor's degree in
virtually any field may serve as
a prerequisite to most profes
sional degree programs but
tests, applications and letters
of recommendation are also re
quired
"The Graduate Record
Exam is required by approxi
mately 90 percent of graduate
schools." Strange said. "Stu
dents should prepare for It dur
ing their junior year and take
the test early in their senior
year. H possible."
