Hey all,
I'm an MA2 stationed in Yokosuka, Japan. I am attending classes at Excelsior College and taking advantage of CLEP/DSST testing to complete my degree. I should be finished by next summer.
Because of my rate I can't take brick and mortar (classroom w/ instructor) classes. I have to resort to online education and testing. I have less than a year when I have to decide whether to reenlist or get out of the Navy. I want to put in an OCS package for SNA/SNFO. I know about STA-21 program but I will have my Bachelors in Criminal Justice before I even mail the STA-21 package out.
I have done a lot of searching on these boards and other resources, and I understand Excelsior is a regionally accredited university which is good to go as far as OCS requirements. My question is, does the aviation community look down upon these types of degrees? I wish I could attend classes but this option suits my life right now.
Any insight is appreciated, thanks!
