Overview[edit | edit source]

A graduate is a person who has successfully completed a degree, course, or training. This term is most commonly used to refer to individuals who have completed a university or college degree program. However, it can also refer to individuals who have completed a high school or secondary school diploma, a vocational school certificate, or a professional school degree.

Types of Graduates[edit | edit source]

There are several types of graduates, depending on the level of education or training completed. These include:

  • High School Graduate: A person who has completed high school or secondary school education.
  • College Graduate: A person who has completed a college or university degree program. This can further be classified into:

Graduate Studies[edit | edit source]

Graduate studies refer to the academic programs beyond the bachelor's degree. These include master's degree programs, doctoral degree programs, and post-doctoral programs. Graduate studies are typically more specialized and focused than undergraduate studies, and they often require a higher level of academic achievement for admission.
