We're going back to school! After much consideration, Jeff and I have decided to go back to college. We're doing it kind of backwards, getting married first, then finishing college lol, but we think that everything is going to work out great. At least this way we can support and encourage each other through it!
Jeff is considering
Homeland Security- an 18 month online Associate Degree program that covers everything from criminal justice to terroism. Salaries greatly range from 50K to 150K per year depending on experience and location. He would most likely work at DIA as a security guard or baggage screener.
Or Criminal Justice- a 2 year 10 month bachelor degree program at westwood. This would allow him to be a police officer, probation officer, bailiff, prison guard, and much more. 
I am considering two fields...
Veterinary Technician- a 2 year online Associates Degree program including 4 months of practicum hands on training. Salary averages about 14-16 an hour (not amazing but you do this job because you love it, not because you want to get rich).


Business Management- A 2 year 10 month Bachelors Degree Program (and one extra year for a masters degree) at Westwood College. Salaries range greatly depending on business. I would most likely manage a Petsmart/Pethotel, or small pet franchise. Or possibly a humane society?
We are still trying to make our final choices. We hope to start as early as October, but no later than January!
Congrats on making a tough decision! You won't regret it!
