Grad School Online Open House to be held Aug. 1

MSU's Graduate School will hold an online open house from 2 to 5 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 1.   

The online event will give those interested in continuing their education at MSU an opportunity to chat with Graduate School advisors. Those who attend the event will receive a promotional code to waive the $30 application fee.   

Dr. Susan Maxey, director of graduate programs, said the event would give students a chance to explore all the options available at MSU.   

"MSU offers 74 graduate degree programs and 41 graduate-level, non-degree programs. Of those, 25 are totally online," Maxey said. "Staff will be available to answer questions about those programs in addition to more information about the graduate assistant qualifications, program admission and credentialing."   

According to the National Census Bureau, people with graduate degrees earn an average of 30 percent more than those who only have undergraduate degrees. Earning a graduate degree also provides increased opportunities for professional networking, hands-on experience and in-depth learning.
