I'm planning on studying Linguistics, and would love to learn new languages while I do so. Is there any language certifications I can get at a State level to put on my CV without having to take a class?

I'd like to learn languages without having to take a class because I can work at my own pace and study what I want in a language at any point in time. However, I feel that having a certification or award would look better on a resume than just self reporting. If you could give me ideas about...

Is a Master's degree necessary?

I am pursuing an engineering major and was wondering if I should pursue a Bachelor's degree or a Master's. Is it necessary for engineering students to continue their studies after undergrad? Also, is a BS degree a lot more practical than a BA degree?

Does ABET accreditation matter?

I am pursuing an Engineering major, specifically computer engineering, but the program at my school that I will attend is not ABET accredited. Does it matter much? Will it affect my career path?
(the school I will most likely attend is University of California, San Diego)

Are there any scholarships or grants that cover my mental health services fees?

I suffer from acute anxiety and I would love to keep my current therapist to help me with the transition from being a full time worker to being a full time student. I'd like to know if there is any money available to cover this necessary service. #mentalhealth #anxiety #undocumented

Are there scholarships that cover living expenses?

Now that I'll be attending college full time, it means I'll have to work part time to cover my living expenses. However, I foresee having miscellaneous expenses at school such as materials, books, etc. #college #scholarships

What full-time/part-time jobs would be great for experience when wanting to pursue a career in Forensic Pathology?

I'm new to the work environment relating to the medical field and I do a lot of research, and ask others questions, on this topic, but the answers are either broad, or unanswered. I would also appreciate learning from what someone else had to do to build themselves up to this specific type of...

I am interested in fire science. Are there any professionals willing to share their experience on how they became a firefighter?

My grandfather was chief fire inspector for the state of Hawaii. He was really good at what he did. I heard most of the stories from my father, who would tag along during the days of his youth. My father even regretted not going into the fire department. I've heard about the benefits in working...

For physical therapists.. to go into programs accredited by CAPTE, would schools consider choosing students who've gotten health related majors?

I'm looking into physical therapy. The CAPTE programs in universities like San Francisco and Sacramento don't have any references on what majors would work well for the student. I'm not confident yet if I want to go on this field, but it would help. #physicaltherapy #college-recruiting

What is an average day like for a psychologist and how demanding will this job be in the future.

For most of my colleges, I chose to major in psychology. Although I have a broad understanding of the topic, I have considered perhaps becoming a psychologist one day as I enjoy working with people and helping others out. But I have a very basic idea of what a psychologist does because how...
