So, I am a first yr college student and I picked undecided when I enrolled and currently an getting Associate of Arts degree. I have always wanted to be a veterinarian but just wasn't sure when enrolling if that's what i'll for sure do and wondering where to go from here? Do I need to do math and sci classes while continuing my degree or switch to Animal science or Associate of science (which is a transferable degree) if this is something I'm seriously considering instead? I am clueless

What would I do to become a dental hygienist or an ultrasound technician? (multiple questions in the description)

I am having trouble deciding whether I want to be a dental hygienist or an ultrasound technician. Either way, I am unsure of what I am meant to do to become either or. I was doing some research and they said I could just go to community college as you only need 2 years (associate degree) to become a dental hygienist (not sure about ultrasound technician) Is that true? Could I still go to a regular college instead and do 4 years to get my bachelor's? How many years would these professions take? What should I know before going into these fields? What college major would they fall into?

Should I get my associates degree while in highschool?

I’m a freshman in highschool. My school has an early college program where you can take college classes and earn an associate’s degree. But I have no idea if it’s right for me. What would my highschool and college career look like if I got my associates in highschool? I heard that I’ve your looking to get into an IVY league or top college, the degree won’t help much. You can take some AP’s while doing college courses, but I believe by Senior year, where you’ll be taking 4 college courses, there will be no room for AP’s. Also, I heard that if you get your associates degree, you will only spend 2 years in college. I’m not sure how true that it. For me, I will am interested in biomedical engineering (this I’m not even confident in) The only thing is I’m not too sure of my future career… I could change my mind at any second. If I choose to get my associates degree in high school, my life will rush through when I’m not even sure about anything. What will I do if I want to change my mind?:( I’m not sure what I’m gonna do. I want to succeed. Like my older siblings, I want to get into good colleges with scholarships. They had a different high school experience and their school is much different from the school I chose to go to. I don’t know anything about any of this and no one is helping me!!! :,( I just really want to succeed, despite not being too sure about my future career…. I just hope everything works out. I’m supposed to make my choice by the end of this week. What do I do? Should I just go through highschool doing AP’s/Honors or should I try to get my associates degree? And if I were to get my associate’s degree in highschool, what would my future look like?

Do you have to transfer your associate's degree to your bachelors?

Hi, I am currently a rising junior who is taking dual enrollment classes in psychology. I was wondering that when I go to university do they take away my associates degree if they transfer the credits to my bachelors degree. I was wondering because If they didn't I could pursue a better-paying job with my associates degree rather than waiting till I get my bachelor's.

What should I work towards getting an Associates in if I am interested in becoming a clinical psychologist?

I am currently a Sophomore in high school and I am applying to do Dual-Enrollment online during my Junior and Senior year with a community college called Forsyth Tech. In order to apply I have to choose a pathway with certain classes and that is where I'm struggling. I'm given the choice between an Associates in Science, Applied science, or Arts. There isn't fully a pathway I could take to get an Associates in just Psychology.

I am planning on playing college sports, what are some tactics that I should use to help me stay on track with school work?

I would like to go D2 or D3 in volleyball. 1/3 of the graduating class at my school graduates with their AA degree. This is something that I am planning on doing. Though I don't want to get into the real world at the ripe age of 20, so I am planning on getting my masters after completing my major.

Is it worth it getting an associates in illustration?

I am a high school student who is working on getting my bachelors in communications integrated with media management through dual enrollment. Since I will be graduating college two years early, I am trying to think about more schooling options. I love art and I think illustration will pair well with my major. I was thinking I could get my associates in illustration online after I get my bachelors so I can get a more artistic and creative job. Would this be a good option or should I look at something else?

What is the best associates degree to get before getting a bachelor's degree in cybersecurity?

Both my younger brother and sister want to earn their associate's degree in cybersecurity, However, I'm concerned that they will be unable to find jobs after graduating with only their associate's degree. I've researched cybersecurity jobs, and discovered that most, if not all require at least a bachelor's degree. They want to work before getting their bachelor's degree so that they can have experience and see if they like the tech industry. Are there other associate's degrees that would have more job opportunities? Also, which computer/IT associate's degree be most compatible with a bachelor's in cybersecurity (i.e. the most credits would transfer/give them a basic foundation of computer knowledge)? Thanks in advance!!!
