Getting 2 degrees

<p>So this may be a ridiculous question because I have no clue how it works. </p>

<p>I am in CC now and getting my Gen Ed A.A then transferring to a University to finish my 2 years and hopefully pick whatever degree. Say I don't like it after college, can I just go back and complete another 2 years and receive a different degree? Or do I have to go back and finish another 4 years? </p>

<p>I know this is ridiculous to ask but maybe that's how it works, just wondering. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Its a waste of money and time, but yes its possible</p>

<p>You wouldn’t have to retake your general education requirements so long as they transferred to the school you’re getting a second degree at.</p>

<p>Most people get a masters degree in the other subject.</p>

<p>After you get one undergraduate degree. Then degrees in a related field can be rather easy to acquire. But since the job market normally only rewards one degree at a time then it’s essentially the same money for extra education. But then again isn’t knowledge its own reward?</p>

<p>In most cases, you might have to take some classes to meet prerequisite requirements, but you wouldn’t have to redo your whole degree. It would depend on your field though.</p>

<p>Yes, you can get two AA degrees though it seems like a waste. You shouldn’t have to repeat gen ed classes so it should take you less than the full two years.</p>

<p>I meant as in Bachelors. Since I have wll Gen Ed done I could easily do the pre reqs and finish a different degree.</p>

<p>I haven’t quite decided what major I want to do but I figure it’s beneficial to have two similar bachelor’s then 1 masters. Maybe I’m wrong? </p>

<p>If it helps, I’m looking at a job in Law Enforcement. Mostly government related.</p>

<p>I have two bachelors. I only did it because I could finish in four years so I figured why not. It hasn’t helped or hindered IMO. </p>

<p>bachelor + master’s >>>>> 2 bachelors</p>
