Switching from FT to PT?

Post by anonymoustransfer » Wed Jul 21, 2010 2:01 pm

If you transfer into a PT program instead of full time (to go to a better school), do you think that raises any questions or red flags for potential employers?

No. Tell them why. It won't be a problem. People have families, financial problems, there are tons of reasons.

Because of ITE, could this even be a good thing? Another year of experience/networking/etc. couldn't hurt, and maybe the economy will turn around by 2013.

Yeah, that was part of my thinking, coming out a year later might be beneficial. My concern was that I don't have a family reason, or a job lined up or a specific reason for going PT other than wanting to transfer.
