What college do you go to, and what's your major?

I'm an education major at U-Neb--I'm gonna be a high school teacher and football coach. This fall I'll be attending Aoyama University in Tokyo for a semester abroad and when I return in Spring '07, I'll graduate that May and begin my student teaching that fall.

I'm graduating on this Sat. May 6 but i'm not gonna go..I have class on that day but the instructor told me to attend graduation but i'm not going. Me and my moms aren't on speaking terms and i wanted her to be there so, ..forget that plan, lol

I'm finishing my undergrad studies this year, as well, so maybe we'll patch things up by then and we'll attend that graduation. For now, our prides are too big just too in the way of each other for anything to happen by the 6th.

I'll just pick up my degree the next day @ the school's Admin offices, or on Monday, rather..

Janus Marius
Associates' in History this year. About damn time. Took forever thanks to working full time.

FistOfThe North
Same here. Receiving an Associates of Science in Business Administration in early May and I'll be done with my Bachelor's of Science in Management by this Dec. I'm considering applying for an M.B.A. (Master's of Business Administration) program., but we'll see.

Are you going to continue, Janus?

I'm about to sit my finals over the next two weeks...but then I have a year to complete a work-based project. sad

All things being well, I should graduate next year with an MSc.

WrathfulDwarf
I'm a college drop out. Won't be graduating anytime soon.

Im graduating from University this year! Its going to be longer than 2 weeks though, I have dissertation to do, and few exams to give, oral and written.

BA (hons) Criminology and Sociology, baby.

In about a month time I will officialy be an academic citizen - and im really looking forward to it.
And hopefully next year at this time I will be telling you how infew months from then I will have my MA graduation happy

Are you going to continue, Janus?

At least yours will be well-paying. I'm going in for the long haul to teach college and high school level history and philosophy. But really, an Associate's degree in America is like the equivalent of high school in Europe. And because I had to work and it took longer to get this degree, I'm well behind any European of the same age as me. It's a shame.

And you guys don't do dissertations as Undergrads, is that true?

BS in math....hilarious.


Also, I think Mathematics is not regarded as Natural Science, is that possible? Oh and B.Sc. sounds soo much nicer.

Nothing wrong with going the long way round Janus.

I left school with nothing, and worked my way through a part-time BEng (Hons), and now an MSc too. Fortunately for me I'm studying Engineering, which is the area I've worked in since leaving school; so this means I may be older than some of the other people in my department, but I've got 8 years of work experience on them...and it shows. thumb up

I'll be graduating in like 3 more years. So yeah...

This is true. In a sense, I have more responsibility by having to work to the bone and settle myself before fully pursuing a degree. I might not end up a 24 year old teacher like originally planned, but I'll be a seasoned older one.



Nope. No dissertations either.

FistOfThe North
Don't feel bad i'm old too. I started late cause I decided to work for a few years after H.S. Bad idea. I don't recommend it. It's a waste of time. I did nothing after work when I came home at 5pm but hang out/party and play video games. I then went to college at 26. I'm just now going to receive my Bachelor's at 29, this Dec., so.

I took alot of credits every semester to catch up. Like now i'm taking 18 credits and this summer i'll be taking 18 credits as well, lol. Mon-Sat 4 hrs. a day for 9 weeks. That's unheard of but I have alot of energy and no kids. And i actually don't mind going to school. I find it not a big deal, to tell you the truth. In the fall -last semester- all i'll have left to finish up is 12 credits or 4 classes.

But better late than never.

Janus Marius
Yeah, I actually respect people who go to college later when it's harder to go back. We have some older folks in a few of my classes... mothers, grandmothers, etc.

mechmoggy
Mature students usually work harder too...we've seen how bad working life can be, and we want to improve our options. wink

lil bitchiness
I have not made a single brake in my education since I started to be institutionally educated.

So, I will have a Bachelors at 21, and Masters at 22. If all works out as planned, I will be able to reach my Ph.D by the time im 27.

Don't worry I won't stick out tongue
But thank you, and it's guys, a bunch of us are going together although I'm sure by the end of the night people would have all paired off.


And on the topic of university, if all goes to plan I'll be a fully certified lawyer by the time I'm 25 big grin

Damn, thats a hell of a gap between Masters and Ph D blink Fark that, I'd just go for Masters. Im gonna have my BA when Im 21 toow00t

lil bitchiness

Mišt
What are you studying? I dont think I noticed on the last page...
What happens if you get half way through between Masters and Ph D? Do they give you credit or do you have to go all the way?

lil bitchiness
Im not sure you do get a recognition - im persuming there has to be some kind for the research you have done up to that point, but you do need to publish a book in order to obtain Ph.D

Im studying BA (hons) Criminology and Sociology, but the masters I will be attending next year is Criminology and Criminal Justice. thumb up

Long story. Too late now, the ceremony pass. So I stayed home with my lady friend, messed around, ordered chinese food afterwards and watched the "Boondocks". But i'll pick the degree up this Wed., though.
