How to graduate from graduate school by Dreamer7787

"Graduation Day!"

How I did it: I was a little slow when it came to deciding what career path I wanted to take. I've worked in a library since I was 16, but it took me until my junior year of undergraduate to decide that I wanted to pursue a career as a librarian. Senior year: off went the applications for library science programs!

How I did it? A lot of all nighters, missing out on hanging out with friends, regretting later when I did opt to see friends instead of working on the paper due later that week and pulling another all nighter.

I found working in a library while going to school for library science extremely helpful. I already had five years of experience with a lot of the topics that were being discussed.

I finished my program in a year and a half by going full time and working part time. I've actually been done with school since December, but walked today for my parents. It was a very big deal for my dad. I'm the first in my family to get a Master's degree (also the first to get a Bachelor's as well)! Now they're asking me if I'm going on for my Doctorate, but I think I'm done for the moment. :)

Resources:

  • My co-workers (who happen to be librarians!) were very helpful when ever I had questions on assignments
  • 24/7 librarians via my local library's website 
  • my boyfriend and parents for always being available and willing to take me to classes
  • my friends for being understanding when I disappeared for awhile
