This includes trade school and community college, as well as public and private colleges and universities. There are several higher education degree programs available: • Certificate Program is an undergraduate degree program that is one year or less of full-time, directed study. Certificate programs can be pursued independently or in addition to an associate or bachelor’s degree to enhance skills or expertise in a specific area. • Associate Degree is an undergraduate degree program that is two years of full-time study. • Bachelor’s Degree is an undergraduate degree program that is four years of full-time study. • Master’s and Professional Degree are graduate degree programs that are typically two to four years of full-time study after completion of a bachelor’s degree. Types of schools: • Career and Trade Schools generally offer certificate programs. • Community Colleges offer certificate and associate degree programs. • Public Colleges and Universities generally offer associate and bachelor’s degree programs and may also offer master’s and professional degrees. • Private Colleges and Universities generally offer associate and bachelor’s degree programs and may also offer master’s and professional degrees.

While the primary reason students attend college is to prepare for their future profession, there are many additional reasons for attending. Discover and explore• new interests Increase employment• opportunities Meet new• people Explore •new places Earn more• money 3 What to Consider When Selecting a College Field of Study. Before choosing a college, consider what you would like to study. Once you know what you’re interested in and what your professional goals are, you can begin to research schools offering programs that will help you achieve those goals. Check out careeronestop.org for a list of careers and salaries. Clubs and Organizations. College isn’t just about expanding your skills and knowledge—it’s also about meeting new people and discovering new interests. Research colleges that offer clubs or organizations that allow you to continue hobbies you are already involved in or offer an opportunity to try some new ones. Location. A key factor when selecting a school is the school’s location. For many students, college is an opportunity to call a new place home. Since you’ll be spending the majority of your time on campus, it’s important to enjoy the location. Consider weather, culture and size when researching schools. Accreditation. The goal of accreditation is to make sure that an educational program or institution meets standards of quality that will allow credentials earned to be used for education at a different institution or for employment. To determine if schools are accredited, visit the U.S. Department of Education Database of Accredited Postsecondary Education at ope.ed.gov/accreditation. Financial Aid. Most schools offer federal student financial aid, but some do not. Those that don’t offer financial aid can be more expensive. If you are unsure whether a school you are interested in offers federal financial aid, contact the school directly. Affordability. It is a good idea to look at public colleges and universities in your state of residence first. State colleges and universities offer reduced tuition rates for residents. Community college credits cost less per credit hour, so some students planning to continue on to a bachelor’s or higher degree may be able to transfer their community college credits into another program. It is important to work closely with both your current and future school when planning to transfer. When it comes to affordability, what really matters is how much a school is going to cost you to attend. The amount an individual student pays is often lower than the published price. Students should focus on net price – the cost of attending a school after grants and scholarships. In some cases, schools with the lowest published price, such as public college and universities, are the most affordable. In other cases, more expensive schools provide larger grants and scholarships, resulting in a lower net price and making them more affordable. Research the net price of schools using each school’s Net Price Calculator, which can typically be found on the financial aid page of the school’s website. 4 Graduation Rate and Job Placement. A primary goal when attending college is to graduate with skills that will help you secure an enjoyable and good-paying job, so it’s important to make sure that after all your hard work, you get there. Research the graduation rate and job placement statistics of colleges you’re interested in attending. Higher graduation and job placement rates often signify a school with a strong professional network and successful internship or job placement programs. No matter what your preferences are when choosing a school, there are just as many types of schools as there are types of students. It’s important to take the time to find the right fit for you—geographically, academically, socially and financially! Numbers don’t lie! Studies show that bachelor’s degree holders can expect to earn over $1 million dollars more in their lifetime than high school graduates, and those with a doctorate can expect to earn over $2 million dollars more than high school graduates.

    THE INAUGURATION OF CLAYTON S. ROSE Fifteenth President of Bowdoin College Saturday, October 17, 2015 10:30 a.m. Farley Field House Bowdoin College Brunswick, Maine Bricks The pattern of brick used in these materials is derived from the brick of the terrace of the Walker Art Building, which houses the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. The Walker Art Building is an anchor of Bowdoin’s historic Quad, and it is a true architectural beauty. It is also a place full of life—on warm days, the terrace is the first place you will see students and others enjoying the sunshine—and it is standing on this brick that students both begin and end their time at Bowdoin. At the end of their orientation to the College, the incoming class gathers on the terrace for their first photo as a class, and at Commencement they walk across the terrace to shake the hand of Bowdoin’s president and receive their diplomas.

  • Unrequited Love in Fall 2019, Or Where Did Umaine’S Admitted-But-Nonmatriculating Students Go?
    Unrequited love in fall 2019, or Where did UMaine’s admitted-but-nonmatriculating students go? Data from the National Student Clearinghouse UMaine Office of Institutional Research and Assessment 19 December 2019 ________________________________________ The National Student Clearinghouse is a non-federal, independent, nonprofit organization that serves as a repository for student data on enrollment and degree attainment. More than 3,600 institutions of higher education participate in the Clearinghouse enrollment verification service, capturing over 99% of currently enrolled college students in the United States (http://www.studentclearinghouse.org/colleges/studenttracker/).1 The Office of Institutional Research and Assessment annually uses this service to obtain the names of schools that UMaine’s admitted-but-nonmatriculating undergraduate applicants chose to attend. The present report summarizes our most recent effort in this regard.2 Specifically, we determined the destination school for the 8,542 undergraduate applicants who were first-time students, had been admitted at UMaine for fall 2019, did not matriculate at UMaine, and according to the Clearinghouse, enrolled at another school instead.3 Caveat: These 8,542 students account for 88% of the first-time-student applicants who were admitted at UMaine for fall 2019 but did not matriculate here.4 The remaining 12% reflect the fact that some individuals did not enroll at any school in fall 2019, enrolled elsewhere but did not authorize the Clearinghouse to release their enrollment information, or enrolled elsewhere but the destination school is not a Clearinghouse participant. Thus although a marvelous data source, the Clearinghouse is not without imperfections. 1 The 2010 report College graduation rates: Behind the numbers (American Council of Education), though dated, includes an informative overview of the National Student Clearinghouse (see pp.

  • MSSF Program
    MARCH 28, 2020 WELCOME TO THE 74TH ANNUAL March 28, 2020 | Online A SPECIAL NOTE This year, in an effort to hinder the spread of the novel coronavirus, we’re taking the Maine State Science Fair online. Judges will interview students through conferencing on the morning of Saturday, March 28. Transitioning MSSF to a virtual fair has been possible only with the perseverance of hundreds of people: students, teachers, judges, and the dedicated staff of Maine Mathematics & Science Alliance and The Jackson Laboratory. We thank everyone who’s come together to make it possible. We would also like to acknowledge the support UMaine gave to the fair in planning an in-person event, and we hope to work with them again soon to host the event on their campus. The Maine State Science Fair is affiliated with the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). Society for Science & the Public has canceled the event this year due to concerns about COVID-19. Awards for the 2020 Maine State Science Fair include: 3 Grand Prize Awards • In lieu of a trip to present at Regeneron ISEF, the top three projects at MSSF will be awarded with $500 prizes. Awards for the top three projects in each category Special Awards will be presented for the following organizations: Acadia Institute for Oceanography Society for Science & the Public American Meteorological Society Stockholm Junior Water Prize Association for Women Geoscientists The Jackson Laboratory Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences The Reach project at MMSA Hurricane Island Foundation University of New England Office of Naval Research U.S.
