One thing to think about is that if you're hoping for financial aid, there's only loans for 2nd bachelor's and master's degrees. No Pell Grant. A master's would be much faster to complete than a bachelor's - it's 1/4 of the credits.
1. Possess a bachelor’s degree in a STEM field, a business degree (Quantitative Analysis, Accounting, Economics, Finance), or degree with a similar quantitative focus.
OR
2. Possess any bachelor’s degree PLUS one of the following:
- Two years of related work experience
- Relevant and current IT certification
- Related IT coursework
I'm not worried about financial aid, more concerned about in terms of a career move .. would It be better to get 2nd bachelor's in the cloud and then do MS in Cybersecurity .. or is that just a waste of time and energy.
What I'm hearing is that cybersecurity is not an entry-level job.
