O Education and Degrees past the first one...
Ok...kind of an odd question here...My undergrad degree/s are in International Relations and Economics. I enjoyed it, did well etc...
I am interested in pursuing a Masters in Forestry Management or a closely related field. Obviously, I've got a bit of an uphill fight here because my undergrad work is essentially unrelated. I know that I am capable of handling the math/science coursework that would be required for this degree...but am likely going to have to prove that to a college at some point. So...
First, I am aware of CLEP's, but are there other ways to "make up" undergraduate coursework that I didn't take due to my major, with some Navy help? What have you done? What educational benefits/programs/tools, have you used? I am a newb to Navy educational benefits so speak slowly...
Second, does anyone have any reccomendations or advice for positioning myself for greater success in terms of admissions? What has been your best opportunity for Graduate level work while in the Nav?
