Today, adults considering going back to school—whether to
complete their bachelor’s program or enhance their resume
with a graduate degree—have more options than ever before.
The array of choices is a terrific benefit, but it can lead
to a baffling and confusing decision-making process and a
real test of your patience and perseverance—all before you
enter a
classroom. And what should you expect when you do return to
school? It can be an intimidating experience for the
returning student.
Dr. Dani demystifies the process in The Adult Student, an
inside look at higher education from the perspective of an
award-winning professor who has taught at both traditional and
online institutions for more than 15 years. In researching
the book, Dr. Dani interviewed hundreds of hiring managers
for their insights on what they look for in adult graduates,
which
schools they think highly of - and which they do not. She
also interviewed hundreds of professors, current students
and recent graduates, asking them the hard questions about
higher
education. She shares their answers with you in this book.
Dr. Dani has a candid, fresh and forthright perspective on
education, from deciding where to enroll to building a
network and staying connected after graduation. She’ll equip
you with all
the information you need to pick the right program for you
and, with dozens of useful tips gleaned from her own career
and contributed by her colleagues, you will be confident and
set up
for success the moment you enter the traditional—or
virtual—classroom. Dr. Dani tells it like it is, and gives readers an
authentic perspective as she compares the many options
available to students today, empowering them to make the
best possible choice
as they navigate the modern world of education.
