I have already decided what field I want to be in, so that is a step in the right direction. After working in admissions for 4 years, being a house staff member, giving tours/interviews, and leading a student organization, I am planning on staying at college. I would like to pursue a career in higher education administration. Now this could mean a lot of things. I could become and admissions director who reads applications and recruits across the country. I could become an executive assistant for a dean or associate vice president who organizes their schedule and follows up on loose ends. I could work in student life organizing events and coordinating with students to make sure their experiences are great. There are so many things I can do! So where do I start?
Last week I applied to one of the greatest GW programs, the Presidential Administrative Fellowship. This program would not only place me in a job within the university, but it would also allow me to be a full-time student pursuing a master's degree in Higher Education Administration. This is one of the most prestigious programs at GW and I am honored to even have my application read. I will be sure to keep my readers updated with the progress of my application.
Besides PAF, I am obviously applying to Graduate School. I just opened the Graduate School for Education and Human Development's application and I know I have my work cut out for me, but it will all be worth it.
That is about the extent I am into my job search. It is a slow start, but at least I am not waiting until the last minute.
I hope your college applications are going well, and remember I am right there with you. again.
If you have any question please email me!! I love hearing from you!
