Hi everyone. First time poster, long time lurker.
Today, I was rejected by my last graduate school. I'm a senior in college at Quinnipiac University, graduating with a double major in English and History. I thought for sure I'd get into one of my programs, but apparently that didn't happen.
So, now I'm trying to figure out what I should do. Do I apply to a state school here in Connecticut, where I will assuredly be admitted, then go to a better school for a phD? Or, do I try to find work for a year and then just apply for the M.A. again?
This economy is KILLING me. Any suggestions would be well received. Thanks!
