I want to continue working in admissions. Thanks in advance for any thoughts!

bump...My current plan is to apply next fall. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi all, I had a few questions about applying for higher ed administration and "what I could be doing" to help myself down the road. I am currently an admissions officer at a selective liberal arts college located in a state near the plains. I attended a top 25 college for my undergraduate and graduated with honors. I know that in the next few years I want to get my M.Ed in higher ed administration, because I love my work. My questions were this: 1) Is there anything I could be doing now to help myself and my candidacy? 2) What are the benefits to going full-time? There is a solid state school about an hour and a half away (which I could theoretically commute to, but I'd personally just prefer going part-time in a new place) 3) Are there any benefits to being a male applicant? Are they underrepresented? This may seem a trifle silly, but I am completely serious--I notice that most M.Ed programs are HEAVILY female (3:1). Thanks for any help!
