Myles post questions

How much debt will the average person have after obtaining a 4 year degree?
I think it depends on how many scholarships he or she obtains and what school he or she goes to. Stanford is about 60,000$ a year while most Cal State schools tuition, housing and food would come out to 20,000. Both of the schools debt has over $40,000 without any help of scholarships or financial aid.
What degree would be most beneficial to be a probation officer?
Talking to most officers they stated that there degree is not even in criminal justice. I've heard many like communication to EMT. But most of the degrees are able to get you into becoming a probation officer but I would think a criminal justice degree would help you the most.

  1. I've done some research and it says that majoring in Criminal Justice or Criminology would allow you to pursue a career in becoming a probation officer. Keep your options open as well. There are several other different jobs you can get with a criminal justice degree such as a private investigator, detective, social worker, etc!

  2. When it comes to the cost of college it just depends on where you go. If you're going to college right after highschool it helps by going somewhere close because that way it's instate tuition. The key to not being in debt is just only take out what you need and pay it back on time or earlier.- Vivian Shepherd
