Graduate & Professional School Resources for Alumni
There are a number of useful resources available for individuals considering applying to graduate or professional school. As a graduate of West Chester University, it is recommended that you reconnect with faculty members for advice and information.
The Career Development Center has a resource area with graduate school directories, free publications profiling graduate programs, and a variety of other useful print materials. Alumni may also schedule an appointment with a Career Development staff member to:
- Discuss career goals and determine whether or not graduate study is a necessary pursuit to achieve those goals.
- Learn how to research graduate programs and obtain more information about specific programs of interest.
- Get assistance with how to identify other factors that help one determine where to apply, such as financial aid availability, geographic location, size of the institution, student life, and more.
- Have personal statements, resumes, and related materials reviewed to ensure goals and experiences are well represented within the application.
