So I posted the info about the CAA thing yesterday and now I'm curious. What are your goals for your education? What have you already gained??
I have a BS in athletic training and I want to go for my masters in teaching secondary biology education.

Kathryn... You are one funny chick!
I am one class away from finishing my Associates in General Studies. Next term... DONE!
I am doing research into going into the Nursing field. There are plenty of jobs where ever I follow Evan to. I figure, I'll get the BSN (Bachelors of Science in Nursing) and will hopefully be an RN by 2011. Maybe when we leave Florida, I'll be able to get a job where he ends up getting transferred to. I think this is a good career path for me. I can finish, and join the Navy Reserves as an Officer and make even more money!

I was going for a double major in Accounting and Finance but changed my mind a few weeks ago and am sticking with just Finance with a minor in Insurance.
I transferred colleges so that put me behind a little over a semester :( I'm hoping I will be done by next fall!! not really sure what I want to do with my major yet..thinking analyst.
I can picture it now:
Huge office that overlooks a beautiful view--me in my awesome customized suit, sipping coffee...and oustide my door is my secretary. LOL

I will have my associates in gen. studies by may of next year (maybe sooner!) and plan to go for my bachelors in public relations/marketing w/ a minor in communications. Or possibly vice versa... still haven't quite decided but as of right now thats what I want! lol

oh and eventually I wanna go to school to be a bridal consultant but I figure I should get a "real" degree first and then do something like that on the side... and who knows maybe my side/fun job will become my main one!

See, I wanna be your (or someone like you) secretary...well, executive or administrative assistant as they call us now!! But yeah for like a powerful executive or something. I'm a kind of likes to make the trains run on time kind of person, not drive them
I've been thinking about graphic or web design...or even animation. Unforunately degrees in those areas cost a lot of $$ and I'm not willing to put a ton of money into it.
I might start a degree in animation with the CAA thing and teach myself the rest of it. Fortunately, as long as you're good with animation, you don't need a degree. Heck, the degree is useless if you suck at it anyway!

As soon as my CAA grant goes through *fingers crossed* I'm going to school to become a Bridal Consultant and I'm also going for my associate in business.
I have 15 credits right now b/c I did go to college for one semester but I dropped out b/c of money and I hated the school.
I can't wait to go back!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully I'll be starting in September just waiting on them to call me back and tell me I'm getting money lol

We are a smart bunch of ladies!!
I have a BComm.(General Business Studies) and a BEd. (elementary educ.) I am hoping to get a few more years of classroom experience as a teacher and then take a masters in education, hopefully with the type of grants you ladies are talking about!

I have some agriculture college classes but just got my funding to start photo classes in the fall. Eventually want a Masters in Photography.
I'm thinking about Veterinary Assistant. I was thinking of CNA at first then started changing my mind..lol. I really wanted to do Medical Office Admin. but the program I really wanted doesn't work with Windows Vista. I don't want to settle but I just can't take actual classes right now. I love animals, I loved going to the barn every week taking care of the horses and such.

Lol I always wanted to be a party planner! I'm super good at planning parties! Just not sure where to begin on that one :chinscratch: other then planning all my friends theme parties!
Thanks Meredith!!
I actually found another school that I could do the medical office admin. with medical coding and billing. I am so torn. Any advice?
I think party planning is great! Do you ever watch that show Who's Wedding is it Anyway? Those consultants make tons of money but go through hell..lol.
