Hello everyone.

I am close to getting my Bachelor's from Columbia College online (Missouri).

I am thinking of continuing with my Master's. I have been looking at several programs, specifically a MBA from U. of Louisiana Monroe, Masters in Quality Assurance (CSU Dominguez Hills), and Masters Regulatory Affairs (San Diego State U).

All are within my price range so I do not go broke going for these programs. I do not need the degree for my current job, but am looking to branch out to other fields in other industries.

Greetings; my name is Fred.

I'm joining up with the hopes to get an economical plan for me to get a Bachelor's degree. By economical, I mean both in my time and my money. Both are in short supply these days, as with most of us.

My education background is a combination of formal, work training, and experience.

I have an Associate Degree from Lansing Community College, from 1992. In addition I have other credits there outside of that degree program, which was in Aviation Maintenance Technology.

I have been working in my profession of aviation for almost twenty years now, and I've been blessed with a range of activities to have participated in. Standard Technician stuff, such as sheetmetal and mechanical work on the airplanes; Inspection work; Technical publications work, making FAA compliant manuals and forms; and training, where I got to be an instructor on various work related topics.

Outside of that more career oriented group, I have a serious hobby with my writing. I mostly write short form things, such as poetry, or serialized stories. I have published my first book recently, a monster volume collecting all my poems from 2011 (one a day!). That was published both in physical soft cover, and in electronic format for the Amazon Kindle. I did all the editing and formatting myself. It didn't turn out half bad. But I'm not here to pimp my book.

Given all the above things I've done or accomplished, I really want a Bachelor's degree. I feel that not having one, tends to limit my employment opportunities somewhat. For example: I applied to Northern Michigan's Aviation College to be an instructor. I had hoped they would cut me some slack for not having a four year degree, since maybe I could get one there while I was in residence, but no such luck. Four year degree required. Other things have also passed me by for similar reasons.

Hopefully, someone can read this, and give me some ideas. There must be a relatively easy way for me to achieve a four year degree, given what I've done over the last 20 plus years. But I really don't know which route would fit my limited means the best.

Thank you so much for reading this!

Fred
