Fast and Easy Associates Degree
#1
Hey guys, I'm 41 years old and believe it or not, I'm looking to become a police officer.  I found plenty of departments in the area where I'm moving (Lynchburg, VA) that will accept without an associates but I'd rather go in with something more than just a GED. I'd also like to eventually get a BA and possibly masters at some point in the future. 

I would also consider a BA since I already have 29.5 credits but I'd like to finish in 12 to 18 months. I have the time to put into it.

Your Location: NY USA
Your Age: 41
What kind of degree do you want?: Associates in Criminal Justice or Psychology 
Current Regional Accredited Credits:

Suffolk Community College in 2005-2006

Introduction to Computing - 4 credits
Standard Freshman Composition - 3 credits

Freshman Seminar - 1.5 Credits
Introduction to Psychology I - 3 credits
Technical Writing - 3 credits
Foundations of American History - 3 credits
Understanding Music - 3 credits
Introduction to Literature - 3 Credits
Abnormal Psychology - 3 credits
Ethics - 3 credits

Total - 29.5
GPA 3.0

Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits:

None

Any certifications or military experience? None



[b]Budget: 10K if I go for BA and probably around 2 to 4K if I go Associates
[/b]

Commitments: I can commit 30 hours a week to studying/school

Dedicated time to study: 30 hours a week
[b]Tuition assistance/reimbursement: None[/b]


Thank you all!!
