Hey guys! Well, just wanted to post something that has been on my mind lately. I've found a way to go to graduate school no matter what! Yes, even if i'm married, and pennyless there is a way. After discussing it with my computer networking teacher (bro. Armstrong) he has listed a few options.




Option #1:


Do an internship for a company called "Novell". They are a company that have been gobbling up BYU-I students for interships. While working their and gaining experience, they offer to pay for your Masters Degree! As well as a monthly check. The only down side is that by them doing that they would expect you to work for them for several years and they are mostly stationed in Salt Lake City (not exactly where i want to live).






Option #2:

And then there is ISU (Idaho State University). Positioned in Pocatello. Brother Armstrong was saying that they work with the government and any students that are in the Information Systems area and working on getting a MBA qualify for up to a $2000 stipend a month for working on their projects while at the same time having this meet the requirments for a Masters Degree. Then it is likely that you would get a job with the Federal Government! The only down side i see to this is I would have no idea where in the US i would be working.
Options options! I guess i will not really know what will happen for a while!

just look at you kent . . . the master planner. IMO, living in SLC could be a whole lot better than being sent to Pennsylvania or Kentucky or Ohio. But you do what you gotta do.

they sound like two really good options & I argree wish shannon SLC isn't bad compared to other places & it would be at the early part of everything you can more than likely move after getting a better job & moving up in your career.
