Should I go back to school for a second bachelors?
I am currently in engineering and I don't really think its for me. I wanted to try to get into a more creative career that has to do with writing, possibly journalism. I am wondering if it is worth it to go back to school for a second bachelor's, since I'm kind of switching drastically between fields.
How would I go about funding a second Bachelor's degree?
I honestly did not enjoy my first experience with my first BS degree. The school was not a great fit for me, and if I had been honest with myself about what I wanted for my education, I would've transferred to a school that was (distance wise) closer to my hometown and had a unique major that I would have enjoyed more. I've found an undergraduate major that would enrich the direction that I want to take my career in (tl;d-type) less tech-oriented, more business-oriented. I haven't found a public institution that is offering a similar subject that is in a graduate program that is: a) not a private university (duh... private schools are wayyy out of budget) b) in my state* Are there any funding options for students who already have Bachelor degrees who want to change career paths? I know of accelerated degrees for some medical professions, but I'm not going into a nursing or med program. Advice is appreciated! *I do not live in Florida, I put that as more of a way to talk to professionals in that area, as I do plan to relocate there in the future.
