I know that this question is quite broad in regards to what I am asking. I will be heading to graduate school in the fall for a program in Higher Education Administration and I am very much looking forward to it. I would just like to know from those who attended on-campus what type of experience you had. What type of graduate program did you enter in to ? How long did it take you to complete? Was it easier or harder than you expected? Did you have a lot of classroom discussions? Did you have decent experiences working with other classmates? Were your professors engaging and helpful in regards to the class?
