Guidance Requested: Is this right for me?

[allvia]

I still lean towards a business degree in marketing for your undergrad (as I mentioned in my previous post) vs English.  The business degree is more marketable, especially if you're looking to do creative design work rather than copy writing. Then when it comes time for a master find a program that you want to focus on, if that is graphic design or art or whatever - I just recommend it be an RA program (vs NA). The business degree covers not only 'checking the box' but is most universal for finding 'professional work' and you will already be going into the job market with experience from your military work. Also, since the percentage of the population with a master degree (or above) remains low (=<14%) you'll be ahead of the majority with a master degree no matter what you study. Using the GI for the master also makes sense, since your area of interest(s) on that level will likely be more costly than either undergrad program.
