Hello PF,
First off thank you for helping me get my life going in the right direction. I started breaking down my monthly bills and trimming the fat where I can. Opened a roth ira and put 2,000 in it.
In short I have a AA degree from a community college and I make over 50,000 a year before taxes at a major company. That being said I want to finish my education but because of my job (that I love) It needs to be online. I have looked into ASU online and I think $400 a credit is a bit much. It would come out to be around 36,000 that I would have to take a loan for. Which would give me a BA in communications (I know but school was never my strong point, I just want to be done and even if its a degree mill I'm okay with that.)
And I don't know if its the right move to put myself into what I consider a real amount of debt to have a BA that doesn't throw too much weight around post school. I have a strong resume so the experience wouldn't be an issue for finding a job if I part ways with my current position.
In short, what do you recommend?
TL;DR have a AA, work at a very big and successful company, 50,000 a year. Should I spent 36,000 for a BA in comms? or enroll in a degree mil to just get it done
