  • Education section on a resume

    Posted on 04/17/2020 01:17 PM

    Here is how to write the Education Section of the resume.

    The education section should start with your full school name, the city and state where the school is located, and the month and year of your expected or actual graduation date. You should also include the degree you are earning and overall GPA. If your major GPA is higher than your overall GPA, start with your major GPA, as in the example below. 

    If you financed your own education through employment or scholarships, consider providing that percentage in your education section (for example by writing, “Financed 75% of college education through employment”). Include the previous degrees you have earned and higher education institutions you have attended. 

    Here are some examples of what good education sections looks like:
