I just got my very first (REAL) job offer since I graduated from college a year ago.

It's an entry-level software engineer position for 60k a year in a different state. The problem is that I have over a year left of graduate school (Comp Eng Masters). This is alot of money to me (most I ever made was $10/hr) and to my family (parents both make <$30k a year).

Should I take it or finish grad school?
 
finish grad school. unless youre hurtin for money, finish up your degree and there should be other offers after you are done.
 
take the job
finish school on your company's dime if you can via tuition reinbursement

graduate then ask for raise
 
Take the job and go to Grad school at a university close to your new job. Most likely, the company will pay for it.
 
I had a harder time finding a job after I graduated than while I was still in school. If you can swing it, take the job and then finish up your school while you are working.
 
Take it, with offers in the market the way it is, who knows if there will be an offer for you when you finish school. Ask the new job about tution reimbursement.
