6. Will significant others, a spouse, or children impact my plans?

　　身邊的重要人物、配偶或孩子會影響我的計劃嗎?

　　Your partner and/or children add a significant, and often complicated, dimension to your graduate study decisions. All are impacted by the experience. Adjustments will need to be discussed, anticipated, and managed. By including those closest to you, you will reap huge dividends when the inevitable rough spots emerge along the journey。

　　你配偶或孩子往往對你的研究生學(xué)習(xí)決定起著重要而又復(fù)雜的作用。各種決定都受到經(jīng)驗的影響，作出調(diào)整時需要進行一些討論、預(yù)測和安排。在逾越旅程中無法避免的溝坎時，與身邊的人，包括你最親近的人商討對策，你將獲益非淺。

　　7. Should I consider a full-time or part-time program?

　　我應(yīng)該全日制學(xué)習(xí)還是半工半讀呢?

　　There are pros and cons to both, and you need to consider carefully what's best based on your situation and motivations. Going full time usually means finishing more quickly, but also likely means a change in employment status, income, and partner/family dynamics. As for the student experience, full-time students tend to develop stronger social networks, which translate into continued personal and professional relationships after graduation。

　　這兩種學(xué)習(xí)方式各有利弊，你需要依據(jù)自己的實際情況和動機來作出最佳選擇。一般情況下，全日制學(xué)習(xí)可以在更短時間內(nèi)完成學(xué)業(yè)，但也意味著就業(yè)狀況、收入和家庭穩(wěn)定性的變化。就學(xué)生經(jīng)驗來說，全日制學(xué)生有機會建立更緊密的社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)，有利于畢業(yè)之后的個人和專業(yè)發(fā)展。
