EVENT DESCRIPTION:

The Graduate School Workshop is designed to help you decide whether graduate school would enhance your professional career – not only with facts and knowledge about our government but in living out the virtue of study and professional development necessary to restore constitutional self-government in the United States.

Whether you're in college, have recently graduated, or are currently working, this workshop is valuable for anyone interested in weighing the pluses and minuses of pursuing an advanced degree, and how to craft the perfect application package.

The workshop will focus on advanced degrees in the governing arts, including government (politics, public policy, public administration), public affairs (communications, marketing, and journalism), related social sciences (economics, history, philosophy, and international relations), and the law.

Admissions staff and faculty from local Washington, D.C.-area universities will provide expert insight on why you should pursue graduate education, incorporating best practices when applying to graduate school, and the need to train future civic and public policy leaders to save America.

You will learn:

• Why the American republic needs an advanced educated citizenry

• What program fits you best

• Building the perfect application package

• Funding your education through scholarships, fellowships, and other aid

• Explore the work-life balance necessary to succeed in D.C.

• Career opportunities with advanced degrees

Help local candidates get on the ballot this election cycle!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by the DC GOP’s headquarters for their open house night and those who have helped collect signatures. We need to keep the momentum up!

Our local Republicans still need more signatures. Local candidates have less than three weeks left to collect signatures, and they need EVERY Republican to get energized and support our outstanding candidates.

If you are not able to collect signatures but have time during the week, DC GOP staff will be able to accommodate.
