I'm moving to England with my husband for his job. I want to go to grad school while I'm there.?

I'm not sure what field you want to study, but you could check out international universities close to where you're moving and become a regular degree-seeking student. If you go to the site www.DegreeAbroad.com, you can do personalized searches for universities that offer international students a degree-seeking option.

Here are some universities in England that are listed on the site, just to get you started. You can click onto the "Contact" link on the top of each page to email each university and ask about their admissions criteria.

Good luck in getting your degree!

Post-graduate programmes in the UK aren't ever called "grad school", so that's why the first poster was confused.

If you have a bachelors degree from a regionally accredited university in the US (I assume you're in the US), then you are qualified to apply to masters degree programs in England. However, as in the US, there are some programs that are far harder to get into than others.

Usually, if you go to the uni's website, they'll list what sort of British undergraduate degree results they require of applicants. So, for example, you'll see them say that applicants should have the equivalent to:

- a first, or

- a 2.1 (upper second class honours), or

- a 2.2 degree.

And they mean it. If you don't hold the equivalent to that degree, you will not be admitted. Those classes of degrees are determined by what sorts of grades a student got in their studies.

There are no exact US GPA equivalents to those degrees, but in general, approximately, a 2.1 degree would be would be equivalent to a US bachelors degree from a reputable, regionally accredited university - one maybe in the top 100 or 150 or so unis in the US - with a GPA of a 3.5 or higher. That'll give you a rough idea. A 2.2 would be the rough equivalent to a GPA of above a 3.3, or even a 3.0.

For graduate programs in England, you apply directly to each university. They'll tell you how to do this on their website. They'll ask for official copies of your undergraduate transcripts, and an application form. They may also want an essay, references, and a CV (resume).

You do the same things you did for applying to US colleges/universities. You search for a few that work with your field, apply, and tour the schools.

After that, it's really in the school's hands on weither or not you get accepted. They are a bit more pickie, and are less likely to pay you (unlike grad studies in the US), but they are worth it.

You can also apply to a US college that does study work over there for most of the time. That all really depends on the field.

what'd you mean uni, college, high school ???
