I have B.S. in Av Sci.... Poor choice on my part. Anyway, how's the online degree thing work? I'm interested in taking additional classes in another subject area. Are you using Phoenix? ERAU extended campus?

Pricing is fair wherever you live I think.. Univ of PHX is quite expensive from what I've heard.

Check it out.

This is the truth.

Is a degree in Psychology really that much better? I've heard of far too many people with a Psych. degree looking for jobs at McDonald's. If you're doing psychology as a career field, then you probably have a Ph.D hanging on the wall of your office. I don't think just a 4-year degree in it gets you much, but do correct me if I'm wrong.
