I just received my Associates degree at the school I had been attending when we got married. I was planning on transferring to a school in the area that we live in, but they recently got news that most of us will be moving a year earlier... not leaving me enough time to finish school up here if we are part of the "lucky few." At this point I feel that it would be better to take a break and work full time for now. My husband has approx 2.5 years left before we will be going back home for good. I can finish school there once we get back, but I'm not really wanting to take that long of a break. Any advice? Thank you in advance!
If you choose a college with online options, it won't matter where you live. I'd also not assume it takes 2 more years to get your bachelor's. I earned an associates and bachelors both from scratch in 18 months.
Not knowing what your associate degree is in, I can't say for sure, but you could be done in 6 months depending on what you choose to pursue.
