It's my last semester and doing Bachelor's level coursework freaks me out. I think there's a bit of imposter syndrome? in that I don't know that I can do the work, but I've been in college long enough that I should have like 5 bachelor degree or 3 masters degrees or something. It's been 22 years since I graduated high school. I should have more than an associates degree and 1 (or 2?) certificates in a field I don't have much interest in other than in passing (travel & tourism).
I could very well continue with Travel/Tourism with regards to my bachelor's degree and go the hospitality route...but where I'm at now in dealing with elderly people, I'm thinking about healthcare management and working at a nursing homes or outpatient care facility or even a community health agency.
So I have options, but I feel like at my age, my hireability is going down fast, even though I know I could work for another 20-30 years!
Anyway...I'm looking at universities. There are a lot more business schools out there than I thought...or I wasn't searching the right places.
These are the ones I'm heavily considering:
Whittier College
Business Administration with Concentration in Management
Cal State LA
Business Administration with Concentrtion in Healthcare Administration or Human Resource Management or General Management
Cal State Dominguez Hills
Business Administration with Concentration in General Business or Management & Human Resources or Sports, Entertainment & Hospitality
Biola University
Business Administration with Concentration in Business Management
----------------------------
The perk of Biola is they're the first university that I've seen that advertise that I can do my degree coursework all online. A drawback of this one is they're a Christian university. I'm more spiritual than Christan and I don't necessarily want to take Bible course.
I'm sure the other universities offer online courses, which I prefer since I can't leave Kim alone for 5+ hours a day and her sister always finds a reason to not come down during the week, so going to campus is out of the question at the moment.
I have 4 universities on a back up list. 2 in California (further away, would probably have to move if I attended), 1 in Arizona (they also offer business administration degree coursework online, but I think I need to research it more) and 1 in Michigan (probably last option because I don't do the snow and idk with my aunt/mom would let me live there rent free until I could find a job/get my own place).
I signed up for a transfer assistance session at my current college so that I can find out what to do and when and get some direction on the universities that I listed that I was interested in applying to. I was looking for a Spring 2023 transfer, but if there's not enough time, I can do Fall 2023 and use the time to apply to work from home jobs and search out which universities offer online coursework for my degree.
