It is official, I have just completed my Master's degree in information Technology Management. The Coast Guard is very liberal when it comes to professional development. Do not for a moment think you cannot accomplish it. I did, and I am a recruiter!! Total coast of my Bachelor and Master's degree? Less than 300 bucks! I still have my full GI bill as well... Now in the words of Larry the cable guy.....get r' done! |

Congrats chukles! I know I'll be going for my Masters while I'm in the CG, and probably another Bachelors. |

Congrats! Its a great degree to have. You'll have a military retirement and a nice paying job as well assuming you choose that route! Work 10 more years, retire rich and live on a Florida beach. Oh yeah. I start my Master's program in summer. I would have started now, but the final exam time would have been during my honeymoon. I can't have that! I will probably get a second bachelor's too if I stay in long enough. |
