Preparing for grad school

I'm going back to university for a Master's degree (basically an MLIS); how do I set myself up to do this right?

I've been accepted into a Master of Information program (renamed from MLIS) starting in September. Yay! But my undergrad studies (in computer science) were back in the early 2000s, and I've mostly been working in a corporate environment since then. What do I need to do/know to avoid being out-of-place, overwhelmed, or unprepared? What changes should I be expecting in an education environment vs. 15+ years ago? Is there anything I can do to be better prepared for an MLIS-type program, particularly given a mostly-tech background?

Other details that might be relevant:

  • I'm in Canada, attending school locally

  • The university is planning for mostly in-person classes this Fall

  • I'm attending full-time, and won't have many other commitments


Advice, recommended reading, or other resources are all appreciated.
