<p>If your goal is FBI employment, would it be beneficial to get there via military first? With certain majors, you can get into ROTC - often field training then final two undergrad years - so that may mean gap year anyhow if you already have first two years done. Make sure with any military you can meet the physical requirements - that would come into play with FBI too.</p>
<p>Military had big cutbacks this year, and my DD was supposed to go into field training with Air Force, but they had major cuts - she would have gotten in Summer 2013 if she was a year ahead in school (nursing) - so now she is applying for Navy Nursing this fall, which if she gets accepted, will have a sign on bonus and $1000/mo for up to 25 months during UG. She is trying to get nurse practitioner and PhD through military. Army may have the largest number of opportunities out of all the military divisions.</p>
<p>Others have good suggestions for you to consider. You probably can continue to take courses to strengthen yourself as a candidate for what you want to pursue, plus you do want to not take an extra semester at an expensive school under loans…</p>
