Did you know that you can earn your graduate degree at the University of
Washington and many other colleges and universities while serving in the
Peace Corps through the Peace Corps' Master's International program?
It just takes a little bit of planning and coordination.
Peace Corps service is the opportunity of a lifetime and a great way to
get two years of international experience under your belt whether or not
you choose to concurrently pursue a graduate degree. While we recommend
that you take advantage of this fantastic option to do both, here's your
next chance to get all the facts so that you can make an informed
decision on which path to choose. A returned Peace Corps Volunteer will
be at this event. Anyone who is interested in learning more about the
Peace Corps - voted by college graduates around the nation as one of the
top five most desirable organizations to work for in 2007 * - is welcome
to ask questions. Please feel free to bring friends and family.
