Should you go to grad school? A conversation about higher education

April 3, 2025 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

, ,

According to a recent report by the Council of Graduate Schools, the number of students enrolling in graduate school is steadily declining. While graduate school enrollment increased by 6% between 2010 and 2020, it fell in 2022, dropping by 4.7% between fall 2021 and fall 2022.

Since this comes as the average student loan debt per borrower is around $38,375, with 42.7 million Americans holding federal student loan debt, it begs the question: should you go to grad school?

Join Chris West of America’s Future and Jenna Robinson of the James G. Martin Center for Academic Renewal for a virtual discussion about the future of higher education. The first 40 people who register will receive a Starbucks gift card on us to enjoy during the event, so be sure to reserve your spot on Eventbrite! Questions?
