Pursuing a graduate degree is a big commitment as it will to a very large extent determine your career path. Also, applying for graduate programs is no easy work so do plan carefully before deciding on attending graduate school.
1. The structure of a graduate degree program is very different from that of an an undergraduate degree. For example, graduate students are required to conduct their own research, and sit for a written and an oral exam two years after then enter the program. In some universities, the students would have to construct their own writing list, and the materials on that list will be tested in the exams. This structure requires a lot of self-discipline as the professors see graduate students as their peers and thus tend to be more hands off.
2. A graduate degree is an expensive investment. Most master’s program do not provide much funding to the students so before enrolling to a program unfunded, students have to evaluate whether it is worth it to take out a loan. In humanities, a master’s degree is not particularly helpful for career development. However, most a master degree in engineering, computer science, and economics will allow the graduate to quickly advance their career. Almost all PhD programs provide at least some, if not full, funding to their students, in the form of teaching/research stipends or fellowships.
3. Do enough research to gain a better knowledge of the discipline before and after the graduate application period. The quality of graduate programs varies discipline by discipline, so it is important to look up sources such as the National Research Council to determine which universities have the leading programs in the field. After the application some students may get multiple offers from different graduate schools. At that time, it is important for them to visit the campuses, talk to the graduate students there, and ask the faculty members questions regarding funding, teaching load, and research.

It is technically a college degree but is usually though of as sort of half of a Bachelor's degree. Bachelor's degree is usually a "4-year degree" and is considered better than an Associate's degree. Some programs are set up to get you a Bachelor's degree in two years if you already have an Associate's degree. BOTH Associates and Bachelor's are referred to as "undergraduate" - even if you got an Associate's degree first and then went on to get a Bachelor's degree. If you got a second Bachelor's degree you would be considered to have 2 undergraduate degrees. A Master's degree usually requires that you already have a Bachelor's degree before starting on it. A Master's degree is usually the lowest level of "Graduate" degree. The other type of "Graduate" degree is a Doctorate. Doctoral degrees programs also usually require that you have a Bachelor's degree before you start work on it. Associate's < Bachelor's = both undergraduate < Masters < Doctoral = both graduate
