Every year many of our English majors continue their English studies at the graduate level. We have students going on in almost every academic area in English—literature, composition & rhetoric, professional writing, journalism, education, creative writing and American studies.

Faculty are excellent resources to learn more about specific programs and degree options. The English department attempts to hire faculty from a wide range of universities to help our students have access to a broad network of academic colleagues.

Of course, many of our English students go into professional schools such as law school or MBA programs if they have pursued work in an organization. The advanced analytical reading skills and excellent writing skills common to English majors make us known to be top performers in these professional programs. If you are interested in preparing for law school, contact Dr. Robert Money, Millikin's pre-law advisor.

If you would like help planning and preparing for your application to graduate school, we encourage you to seek advice about graduate programs from faculty in the area of graduate studies you are pursuing.
