Graduate degrees offer a chance to earn more money and receive a job promotion. A master’s degree also makes job candidates more marketable. Most mid-range salaries require a master’s. Albany State University offers seven graduate programs with over 10 concentrations. 

Students and community residents can learn more about ASU’s advance degree programs while networking with faculty members and graduate students at an information session presented by the Albany State University Office of Admissions. The session will be held from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 20, in Room 101 in ASU’s J.C. Reese Building. 

Valuable admissions and financial aid information will be provided. 

“The benefits of pursuing a graduate degree at Albany State University include our affordability and the convenience factor for the full-time worker. All of our courses are offered after 5 p.m., and a few programs are offered completely online,” said Jeffrey Pierce, II, graduate admissions counselor.

The graduate programs at ASU focus on promoting excellence in graduate education and ensuring that, upon completion, participants are efficient contributors in their field of study.  

“This event will equip prospective graduate students with the necessary knowledge to pursue a graduate degree. We want students to know that through diligence, perseverance, and dedication, a graduate degree from ASU will propel them to reach the next level of achievement,” said Leslie Charles, director of admissions.
