  • Mastering the Job Market Through Postgraduate Studies
    Graduating with a bachelor degree is no simple feat, and many who do so feel they are ready for the job market. Mounting student loan debt and the desire to earn money often push graduates to find work immediately, with little consideration for their long term future.
  • Postgraduate Degree Enrollment on the Rise
    As the number of bachelor degree graduates continues to rise, more and more students are looking for a way to differentiate themselves in the job market. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, greater numbers of students at the high school level are not only aspiring to a college education that encompasses a postgraduate degree or beyond, but following through as well.

  • Picking a College Major
    If you’re like most people, choosing a college major can be extremely difficult.

Few people will ever welcome the onset of the workweek, but that doesn’t mean any job should be a nightmare. Likewise, jobs from “easy” majors rarely pay very much and often require another four years of college before they become marginally profitable in regard o the time spent on them.
  • Re-examining the Child Tax Credit in the Context of Education
    For parents, the child tax credit is little more than a Band-Aid on a gaping wound when considered against the cost of raising a child. Still, it’s a welcome dressing that, during tax time or from paycheck to paycheck, eases some of the burden associated with childcare expenses. Still, with the child tax credit comes a level of unspoken responsibility to those taxpaying members of society who don’t have children.
