A person's educational journey can be a long one, lifelong even. The reason that I decided that the completion of an AAS was important on my journey to a BA/BS was simple. It gives me an absolute on my resume. While I clearly state that I am working on my four-year degree, my resume reflects that my educational commitment is not just fluff, since my AAS would show most that I am already at least half way to my educational goal.
There are positions out there that will allow you to substitute experience for college. By having my AAS now, that is two years of education that I don't have to negotiate about. Potential employers can see my transcript and decide for themselves with my 4.0 GPA and Phi Theta Kappa membership, if I have what it takes to complete my college journey.
It is all about how I market myself...
