Geology transfer????

<p>Getting a Masters in geology?</p>

<ol>
<li><p>I've searched long and hard to try and find what classes are required to be accepted by some of the better graduate programs and can't seem to find what classes I should be taking for a M.S. in Petrolium Geology. Can anybody send me a list of the classes please I can't find anything I've even talked to advisors and they tell me to do research -__-.</p></li>
<li><p>One more thing, I'm a sophomore at a community In Virginia and I really want to go to a school that offers a good undergraduate geology program. The only problem is that Virginia only has two schools that offer a geology degree, JMU and VT. I know for certain that I can't get accepted into either one of those schools without an associates degree based on my high school record being so crappy. I've done really good since being in community college I have a 3.8 gpa I was just young and dumb in high school. Ive recently learned that the average college student spends close to 25k a year in fees which completely blew my mind. I was accepted to WVU which doesn't have a bad geology program but it does have out of state tuition that I would have to pay which turns out to be 30k for my first year there them less when I won't need room and board. Should I go ahead and transfer to wvu to begin my life as a geologist or what? I only have three more years of college left and I'm looking to finish as fast as I can please help</p></li>
