Post Body

I currently work in finance (private sector). Between internships and working my way up the ladder, I have found myself in a place where I make a comfortable living but I never finished my bachelor’s degree. My career goal is to work for the state in some sort of finance capacity, but it seems that any decent-paying position requires a BA degree to even get an interview.

Is it at all possible to come in at the SSA or AGPA level without a degree? I know that you can start as an OT but seems like at that point, finishing my degree may make the most sense.

Thank you all for the input!
