BELONG, BELIEVE AND BECOME
Paul F. Davis helps students find where they belong, encourages them to believe in themselves and become high achieving professionals and world-changers. The American higher education system offers incredible diversity, from large research-focused institutions located in major cities, to small liberal arts colleges in rural areas, and everything in between.
Where a student attends graduate school is critical to positioning them to excel in the global economy. The world’s top law firms, hospitals, multinational corporations and federal government agencies carefully select graduates from top graduate schools within prestigious universities led by the best professors and rigorous curriculum that mirrors the real world. Where a student attends graduate school is far more important than where he or she went to college. Before a student chooses a graduate school and university to attend, they should get advice from Paul to strategically position themselves based on their chosen career path and where they intend to live and work after graduation.
