<p>What are my chances?</p>
<p>I want to go to grad school and study national security through an IR program and get a masters and maybe join the military or go into intelligence. </p>
<p>But I am unsure if this will lead to steady employment or if I would even get in with my stats. </p>
<p>Should I continue working in civil engineering and get an engineering degree or move on to grad school?</p>
<p>Here are my stats:

2 yrs Civil Eng. Experience - mapping want to move into civil eng.
-Now, currently in a Post Bach for International Affairs and also wrapping up pre-reqs(calc, chem, physics) to get into a civil engineering college if grad school falls through (employer would pay for a civil degree if I sign a 5 yr contract and get into a local civil eng. college).
-Raised GPA to 3.1 and still have a year left.
-Have a total 3.8 GPA for Post bach in Pol. Sci Int. Affairs.
