Want to cash in on your education? According to the Census Bureau, those who hold bachelor\u2019s degrees earn an average of $2.1 million during their lives.\u00a0 If you add a master\u2019s or doctoral degree to your r\u00e9sum\u00e9, that number can climb up to $3.4 million.\u00a0 You already know this is great news, but the hard part is figuring out where to begin.<\/p>\n

Join us Monday, September 13, 2010 from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the Student Union, Pegasus Ballroom, for the UCF Grad Fair. This is your one-stop shop for all information about becoming a graduate student at UCF.\u00a0 UCF faculty, staff, and student organizations will be on hand to provide information about graduate programs, careers, student life, financing your education and more.\u00a0 This is an open house-style event welcome to anyone interested in UCF doctoral, master\u2019s, specialist or certificate programs.\u00a0 Meet professors, learn about your programs of interest, and talk to others who are thinking about taking the leap into graduate school, too.\u00a0 You can even win giveaways and door prizes. \u00a0The event is free so you have nothing to lose, and up to $3.4 million to gain!<\/p>\n

UCF has nearly 200 graduate degree and certificate programs available<\/a>, and has lower graduate tuition rates for Florida residents than do many other U.S. institutions.\u00a0Still worried about how you\u2019ll pay for grad school?\u00a0Fellowships, assistantships and financial aid<\/a> are available to help you pay for your education\u2014or even waive the cost of tuition altogether.<\/p>\n

Attendees can dress casually. For more information, please e-mail graduate@mail.ucf.edu<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Want to cash in on your education?
