Where did you get your civilian education degree?

2014-01-17T18:23:03-05:00

Just curious because there has been some discussions about civilian education on RallyPoint. I haven't seen any studies showing where a majority of military personnel earn their degrees.

I can personally give one vote each to Broome Community College (Business Management), University of Arizona (Political Science), and Webster University (Human Resources Management). In December 2014 I can give one more vote for the University of Colorado - Boulder (Interdisciplinary Telecommunications).

Sir, I earned a BA in History at Virginia Military Institute. Graduated in 1983. At the time I was upset that I had missed being able to be commissioned by a very slim margin, but later I was very very happy. I compared most of the officers I saw to the enlisted I saw and realized that a lot of the officers were not worth a tinker's damn. One that was in the unit I deployed with to ODS, our S2, could not follow simple OPSEC while in Garrison. Plus he was sleeping with 90% of the female lower enlisted that resided in barracks before and during ODS. The Colonel refused to stop him. In fact threatened to punish me if I said anything about it. I would give the S2's name but will not due to the fact that a few years ago he killed himself. We shard a common friend, one of his girlfriends that I helped out for awhile. He was the only member of my company during ODS that I knew the status of. Cannot find any of the others. Since separation I have earned a BS in CJ/CSI from Kaplan University. I started to get one on IT, but decided to stop since I was unhappy with the school's program. I knew more than the professor about modern hardware. They were about 15 years behind. One thing I learned though at VMI and my time in is that an officer is almost worthless in combat without a good NCO.

I am looking to change things up in both direction and university. Just began to entertain this, and I have some time so we shall see what happens. I am a late bloomer when it comes to education. I did not do this because of what I thought the degree could do for me. Although, there is no doubt it will help both while I continue my career in the Army and down the line from there. I did it so that I was not having to look at a hypocrite in the mirror every morning. I have harped on my Soldiers for years about taking advantage of the educational opportunities while they were in. I told my boys I would support whatever path they chose to follow in life as long as said path led through college. With my boys both following my advise, it was time for me to get off my butt and do the same.

MAJ Frobe,

My wife and I grew up in Denver, so Boulder was right down the street (okay a bit further than that). I remember sitting at my desk last year watching all the Colorado flood information as it came out. It looked like the University of Colorado - Boulder took a pretty good beating. My son attends Colorado State University in Fort Collins. They had a pretty sizable river flowing through town just north of the university. However, he was away at AIT during the this period. When we were back for Christmas I drove right past CU, and it was hard to imagine the flooding had ever taken place.

I accept that as a career NCO my educational background is kind of weird. Well, if Socrates could be a grunt, so could I. My BA was earned prior to enlisting, from the College of the Holy Cross in Philosophy and Theology. Enlisted for the GI Bill and to go to Germany, planning to drink beer, chase blondes and improve my German for Grad School. Did drink beer, married an American red head and liked the Army. Army paid for MA in Teaching when I was at Fort Huachuca in the 80s; Army also never let me teach again. After retiring, GI Bill paid for MA in Organizational Leadership and HR with Chapman at Fort Lewis and it was a very good program. Discovered I need to actually know how to do something in business, so I got a MBA in General Management from City University. Again, a good program.

I just completed my Masters Degree in IT Management from Trident University International on 29 June. Not planning to pursue a doctoral degree.

Time to devote attention to the little ones instead of writing papers and doing projects. Did I mention that we moved twice, and both worked full-time?

As an elected Alumni Board member of the non-profit Excelsior College, I highly recommend it for any military person. Excelsior has again been named Best for Vets by Military.com. There are currently about 14,000 enrolled veterans. About half our Alumni board are veterans/disabled vets. Excelsior and it's predecessors have produced many distinguished graduates, including several general officers, many other officers, E9s, etc.
The college now offers Masters programs, and is world famous for nursing degrees.

Originally the Regents External College Degree Program, and later Regents College, etc..it was one of the few original fully accredited degrees programs in the "university without walls" concept during the early 1970s. While the military offered 2 and 4 year Equivalency ratings, most of us knew we needed that civilian credential. Regents/Excelsior offered that. So in addition to some 5,000 hrs of military resident and correspondence courses, I was completed an associates and bachelors degree there with minimum costs. Then a master's at Norwich.

The new Veteran's center has also helped 60,000 veterans achieve their goals!

I took the long and winding road to my Bachelor's degree.

Out of high school I went to the University of Southern California as a Business major. Due to family circumstances I left at the end of my second year.

I then spent three years at Windward Community College in Kaneohe, HI as basically a holding pattern while I figured things out.

I then attended the University of Hawaii at Manoa for three years as an Information & Computer Science major. Around the time that my wife got pregnant I realized that a) I didn't want to spend my life as a computer programmer and b) I needed a full time job because we needed medical insurance. That turned into a several year break from education.

Finally, during my first deployment I looked into finishing my Bachelor's degree since I had so many credits and nothing to show for it. I discovered Thomas Edison State College, where it turned out that I simply needed one more class (English) to get a diploma, and it could all be accomplished online. While on that deployment I finally had my Bachelor's degree with a major in Liberal Studies. Lots of people go to school for eight years. It's just that they're usually called Doctor.

I've thought about a Master's degree but I have no idea what field to pursue, and I'm deathly afraid that it will take me another eight years.

I went to a private university in St Paul, MN called Hamline University. While I wouldn't say they were unfriendly to veterans, it was definitely not a school filled with veterans. I got a BBA that I am very satisfied with. I will eventually get a Masters and/or some professional designations in the insurance industry. I think it's important to research the school veteran services before applying. Having competent financial aid representatives that are familiar with VA processes will go a long way. Going to a private institution caused me to need the Yellow Ribbon Program, which my school's financial aid office had tons of information about. I also believe finding a school that can take your SMART and provide some credit to help speed your way to a degree is invaluable.

You ask that like you ASSUME that everyone goes to college and has a degree. That seems kind of condescending to me. There are a lot of us who were
VERY successful leaders in the Military and have been successful in the civilian world WITHOUT a degree!

I got my degree online at National American University in Applied Management in what is a degree completion program. This program (carried by several online colleges) gives the student as much credit as possible for past experience and schooling. About 2/3 of my degree was wiped out from CLEP tests and SMART transcripts.
