Accepted

Hey Guys! I just wanted to let you know that I got accepted into my graduate school program. I am going to try and get my Masters Degree in Student Affairs in Higher Education at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I am so excited. I have heard nothing but great things about the program. Maybe once I graduate from that program I'll come back to MAC for my career!

The next step in this process is trying to finance my education. During my visitation weekend earlier this month, I had nine interviews for assistantship positions. Once the day was over, we had to rank our favorite job offers in order of preference. The employers then rank their top candidates in order of their preference. Then the school tries to match qualified people to jobs they want. I really liked three of the jobs. One was at St. Vincent College, one was at Seton Hill and the other was at IUP. St. Vincent College was my first choice and they called me the other day. They have chosen me as one of their top candidates. I have to schedule a second interview for them to ask me more questions. I am so excited and nervous...Hopefully I will hear back from them soon.

This weekend, a couple of friends and I are going to go to Pittsburgh to see the Bodies Exhibit. The school is taking a bus down for the entire day. I can't wait.

Later...
