I don’t have a masters, just a bachelors. My school basically requires you to have a masters degree to get a PhD, which I would be 1000% willing to do if I had financial support. I think it is unlikely that I would get any kind of help from the school considering my GPA when I left (~2.8) and that I for certain pissed off instructors I would be working with. I had trouble the last few semesters because I was running out of money all the time and couldn’t really focus.
Also, I literally don’t have the money to fill out the application for a masters degree. I literally have about $3. My parents won’t give me the money for that because they want me to get a job. I have applied for well over a hundred positions, and had zero offers and about four total interviews.
Like I would be literally thrilled to go back to school, but I would be surprised if the school were interested in helping me. So as I write this out, I’m realizing that it’s not just a money issue…
What’s your degree in? And general location? I might be able to help you out.
Edit to add: Just keep spamming applications. It’s incredibly hard to get your foot in the door, but it’s a numbers game. Eventually you’ll get an interview, do well and get hired. Hang in there, friend
I don’t know of anything in New Jersey, but upstate NY, Arizona and Oregon are available as far as I know. I think there’s some positions near Austin as well. If you’re willing to relocate or just want to do someore targeted applications let me know.
