Exploring grad school options

Rachel McGinty, left, of Florida, N.Y., and Allison Cowan of East Hampton, Conn., both of Mount Saint Mary College’s class of 2014, learned about the college’s graduate degree opportunities during the school’s recent graduate school fair that attracted students from its Newburgh campus and beyond. The Mount offers graduate programs leading to the following degrees: master of business administration, master of science in education and master of science in nursing. Some Mount also programs provide a flexible hybrid online and on-site format, as well as accelerated tracks with evening and weekend classes. McGinty is on track to teach math and Cowan wants to teach elementary students.
