Its official - I am a college graduate

[Jon K]

Well I graduated a week ago actually but between running around, working on cars, and etc., I forgot to realize what just happened! Last saturday was my graduation from college -- I now have a bachellors of science for Management of Information Systems. No job lined up, but sort of not in any rush either. The sooner I get a job, the sooner my spending habits get craaaazy.

So yeah, I am done. Thanks for everyones help through the past few years!

Congratulations!!!!! What did you learn from your degree and what job do you hope to get from it? Edit: and how much did the course cost you in fees?

[johnnyturbo2002]

Well done, now you just need to get another degree, and a masters and then go for the underpaid teaching job! oh wait, that was me...sorry just projecting :-)
Best of luck!

Congratulations Jon. Your degree will help you quite a bit. I started in IT with a biology/chemistry degree. Of course IT degrees didn't exist when I was your age, but that's another matter..

Congratulations! That's one of life's major milestones. It took me 7 years to finish a 4 year degree, after Nixon pulled the troups out of Viet Nam to get re-elected, my sense of urgency faded -- gee, never thought I'd miss Nixon Yes, I am older than dirt.

I've got 2 years left, congrats Jon

Good work Jon. That's sounds like a very flexible degree given the ubiquity of computer systems. Take your time finding a job if you can - I hear that in general it takes a month per $10k of salary to find a job.

[Jon K]

Thanks all!

I hope to land some sort of network analyst/adminstrator job eventually -- doing the whole application/interview thing.


Kriss - its a 4 year program. 1 year at drexel university, 3 years at desales university, so with all hidden fees and tuition, probably a hair over $120,000 lol.

congratulations Jon, but here comes the pain !! you will realize that all the past years were very easy compared with finding your self a job and especially if you have previous experience that no one believes that u have. and simply you have to work ur ass few years to prove it ... best wishes dude ... be patient and don't make the cash your target as much as the knowledge you will gain from the job you will work in.
