How much will you attend school?

Not unless you need it for your field. At least, not right after you get out of undergrad. Maybe later in your career.

a masters is a lot of work. my history teacher said he would have gotten his masters but then he saw what his wife went through to get hers and he hasnt gotten his masters. unless you need it for a job, i wouldnt reccomend it because it seems like too much work

I believe that its worth going to college for a masters because, even if you think that you wont use it, you might. It also looks very good on a job resume, not matter what the degree is in. Usually when you get a masters degree, you have not only learned one thing, you are taught in many.

If you're not going to use it, then no. If you plan on going into business, you can get an MBA online very easily.

With the more jobs getting lost everyday, things will get more competitive. You will need that extra thing here or there on your resume, to land the job you want.

I think it is best to get it right after you get your bachelor's, if you are ever going to get it. My father had plans to get his master, but now is married, has kids, and a full time job, and there is just no time to go back to school. Both of my parents have told me to just get it out of the way while you are still in the "school" mode.

Indeed, it seems a bit frivolous to invest in something that shall be of no use to you. Still, I think the whole idea of attending graduate school is a wonderful experience, particularly if the course you're studying affords you some joy.

As for employment, I believe having an extra master's degree wouldn't do you any harm. In fact, it may even behoove you to get it for opportunities in the future.

Good luck!

There's no harm in learning more through a Master's. I plan (hopefully) and compeltely a BA in vocal performance, however I don't think I'm going to go into music as a career, I just love what I am doing.

I'm going to be in college for 8 years, it seems. I wouldn't be planning on spending my money on doing this if I didn't want to pursue my career of choice. I think it's well worth it if you have the drive.

I wouldn't waste the money if you are not going to use it, but if your heart is all for it, then i would listen to it.
knowledge will always get you somewhere higher.

Even if you don't use your masters it will look better on a job application most jobs just require some kind of education past high school plus you can get a higher pay
