Choosing Your Path Through Adult Education at Granite State college

Wednesday, May 11, 2011 by Leslie Bowering
If you are in the beginning stages of choosing your major, coursework, and the ultimate goal you hope to acheive when you graduate from Granite State College, I hope you will consider the following tips as you browse through the Granite State College catalog, whether you discover this important tool online at the Granite State College website or just happen to pick up a hard copy in one of the nine class locations around the state:

1. Try to be as certain as you can be regarding your adult college degree outcomes. Are you taking courses at Granite State College for the purpose of completing a degree?  Or, are you planning to complete your degree as a means of making a living?

2.  As an adult higher education student there is little time to waste.  Find an advocate in the wonderful faculty, advisors, and administrators surrounding you from day to day, who can guide you along.  Achieving your degree can sometimes mean the difference in not only the jobs you qualify for but also the money you are preparing to earn.

3.  Research, research, research.  Know for certain what your degree means to you.  Find out what the  difference is between a BA and a  BS.  Know where your Behavioral Science Degree or your Language Arts Degree will lead to in the work force.

As a graduate now trying to get my sealegs in the workforce, I see how valuable this information is to obtain ahead of time.
