Would two years be too long to wait to start my Masters after completing my Bachelors?

I waited ten years. I will say that starting sooner is better because of less transition to the academic environment. Another thing to look at is the financial part of the process.

SFC (Join to see) I got my bachelors in 2002. Didn't start my Master's program until 2008.

I only took one summer off from my Bachelors before starting my Doctorate. Two years is fine, or none at all. Whatever helps you succeed is what you should do.

I waited a year. I felt that amount of time gave me a chance to relax and focus on other aspects of my life.

SSG Herpel,
That really depends on your schedule and what kind of time you can devote to your chosen masters degree program. Having said that, there are those that think you should jump right into a masters while you still have the study and writing skills. But sometimes the student can be exhausted and want or need to take a break. I personally went from my B.A. into an M.S. immediately, and although I learned a lot in my program I could have learned much more because I was very tired academically. My suggestion would be to take a break for about 6 months to a year to recharge your academic batteries.

No. I waited two years after my Bachelors to start my Master's and another two after that to start my PhD.

I must agree with LCDR Matlow. It IS ALL up to you. However, the longer you stay out of the academic environment, the more difficult it will be to re-enter. Two years likely is not too long.

So, an update to my plan...Since I have about 7 years until I leave (as long as the Army will have me). I do not want to get my Masters too soon. The PLAN (I have not worked all of the fine parts of the plan out yet) is that I will pick up my next to last class in a couple weeks while I am still out here in school (ARC) and then I will actually get my BSM-PM 30 Nov. Then early next year I will probably start another BS (most likely in Paramedicine). Then a couple years out from Retirement I will get my MBA, but that way my mind stays active and I have a couple of things when I finally leave. Thanks everyone for the advice!!

I think it depends on your situation and what you want to study. If you are looking at doing a MS is a science or IT discipline, than I would probably not wait due to the rapid changes in those fields. Most other fields you could take some time off, in my opinion.

I don't think there is a right or wrong answer to the question. It all depends on what you want to do with your degree and what goals you are meeting. I went straight from my BA to my Masters, but I had a 16 year break between high school and college. Do what works for you!
