Grad School? -- 2 events you cannot miss!

Is Grad School for You?

Two events upcoming – one on NU campus (Thurs 10/20/11) and the other at Buffalo State College (Thurs 10/13/11 – and NU is willing to provide transportation!)

Very special event on NU campus: a graduate school recruiter is coming from Gannon University to visit Niagara University.

Ms. Bridget M. Philip, Assistant Director of Graduate Admissions at Gannon University in Erie, Pennsylvania will be on campus Thursday, October 20. From 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. she will be in Dunleavy Hall in the third floor lobby; and from noon until about 1 p.m., in Gallagher Center.

In a separate post today, I've reproduced the info from a flyer which lists a number of programs she is representing—she seemed especially interested in talking with students in English and related fields (Theater, Communication Studies, Education). In an email to me, she wrote “our English program draws students from a large background and we would be open to talking to any student interested in a Masters of Arts in English degree.  As for the Education students, we have the Masters in Education program, a Reading Specialist Certificate and ESL certificate that might appeal to the English/Education student.”

This is a terrific opportunity for you to find out more about grad school no matter what stage of your undergraduate career you are in, whether you have thought about grad school or not, and no matter where you are thinking about applying. You can drop by (no appointment necessary) for a few minutes without having to spend time traveling, or figuring out whom to talk with.
