Higher Education (University +) - July 2007

I am planning on starting an Orphanage in China in about 5-10 years, but I'm not sure exactly what kind of education would best equip me for this. Perhaps a Masters in Social Work with some side courses in Business? Does anyone know or know someone who has done something simular and what kind of education they got? I already know a lot of the practical stuff (I've been to China before), but I know there is still a lot I need to learn.

The lecture is for 2 hours, but the campus is an hour away and I'd have to catch the train for 40 minutes, then walk for 20 minutes through the city.
I just looked through the lecture notes and I already know all of the stuff off by heart because I learnt it in my final 2 years of high school, then I learnt it AGAIN last year in my degree at uni, and now I started another degree and I have to do it AGAIN. It's just the basic really easy stuff and I can do it with my eyes closed because I've learnt it 3 times now.

But they say to do well you should go to all lectures. It's just that I dont feel well, I want to stay home and do some maths catch-up and I already know the stuff they're teaching today.

Should I go or stay home?

I'm thinking about moving to Canada, toronto area specificially, to
get my masters degree in IT, I'm currently looking at Ryerson U, and I
have a few questions:

1) Does a canadian degree go over well with american employers?

2) Does a student visa let you work in canada? If not what should I do?

3) If you have studied in Canada, how were your experiences?

4) now Ryerson's IT masters degree says that I would only have to take 12 classes and could be done in a year if I went full time, I thoughtmasters degrees had to be 60 credits and 2 years worth of study. Can anyone clarify this for me?

thank you

In one month I'll be moving out and begin dorming. I'll be sharing a dorm room with two other people and a hall bathroom with a bunch of other people.

Do you have any tips for sharing a room with two other people? And any tips for sharing a bathroom with basically everyone else? I already know that I need to wear flip flops in the shower, but that's basically it when it comes to specifics =/

I want to become a Bible class teacher for a public high school. In my state, they are seriously considering offering these classes as an elective in the future. What would I need to major and minor in? I was thinking of probably majoring in Religion and minoring in Education. Is that right? Also, what type of Education exactly would I minor in? Does it even matter? All the college sites I have looked at only have subject-specific courses such as Science Education or Early Childhood Education.

Thank you!

I am a senior undergraduate psychology major and will soon be applying to a few Ph.D. Clinical Psychology programs and one Counseling Psychology program. I took the GRE in May and I can send in complete applications as early as late August. I have always heard that the earlier you send in your applications, the better chance you have of being admitted...
Is this true even if I will be gaining my research experience (assisting a faculty member with a project) and "clinical" experience (volunteering) this coming fall?
Would it be best for me to wait to send in my applications after I have some of this research/clinical experience or go ahead and send in my applications as early as possible?

My stats are:
GPA: 4.0 (through 114 credit hours)
GRE: 1260 (V 670; Q 590)

I will be thankful for any suggestions!

Hi, I've finished my masters degree and have some time to reflect on it. I know what it's worth in the job market. But, I feel the slightest of pulls toward working on a PhD.

For those of you who have earned a PhD or the equivalent (e.g., EdD), would you be kind enough to share with me some of your life experiences?

How about the simple pros and cons on working towards a PhD (e.g. time, cost, workload, etc.) and the simple pros and cons about work prospects (e.g., can I find work other than teaching or working for the government, realistic earnings, etc.) after earning it?

I'm not sure if I truly want to pursue it and can use some advice here.

Thanks!

OK so I just passed my qualifying exams for the PhD program in Electrical Engineering. Sometimes though I have doubts about continuing. Has anyone dropped out, and did you regret it? What kind of job did you get? Should I just shutup and do it? Sometimes I feel like I want something simple like being a florist...haha.

Is there a place that shows what colleges have really good programs for most if not all majors? Hi, I am kind of at a crossroads to getting an idea of what I want to major in before I go to college. I have generalized what sort of areas I'd want to major in. I just want to know what schools offer the best education then I can go down and pick one thats right for me.
