You have to get your bachelor's and master's degrees in Speech-language pathology.
Can you earn your Bachelors in something besides Speech-language pathology -then go on to ther MA?
In CA - one can definately make that salary with a Masters in Nursing. My BA will be in Psych and I may go for the MSN, only from advice from an old friend who is now an RN did she suggest going for my MSN after the BA to make the bucks. Here, you don't have to have a BSN to go on to an MSN.
There's a book called Do What You Love - The Money Will Follow
Ok, so my question is:
What Master's degree can you graduate with where you will make atleast 50 60K and still have a somewhat flexible schedule? I want to be home atleast most nights and weekends and still be able to attend my kids games, etc. Am I asking too much?
Please help!
An MBA would bge a good choice. Warning: make SURE the school is accredited by AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). Many "online" schools and for-profit institutions do not have this accreditation (regional accreditation not enough).
I'm an OT in a nursing home and I get to set my own schedule. If the baby is sleeping good in the morning I'll turn off the alarm and go in an hour or two late with no problems-just say a little later in the evening. If it's a really pretty day and I want to go to the park I'll work a half day-leave at noon and make 3 or 4 hours up on Saturday. The pay is awesome, the work is so much fun (if you really like to help people that is...don't go into rehab just for the money though or you'll hate it). It's really a perfect job for a mommy who kinda would rather be a stay at home mom because of the flexibility. Also, my employer lets me work 30 hours a week for full time benefits rather than 40 and that 10 hours makes a world of difference (in at 8 and out at 2-I can drop the kids off at school AND pick them up!)
A lot of people are tossing out ideas, but everyone seems to forget that you can't just enroll into any masters program that you want; it doesn't work like that, it's not like choosing an undergraduate major.
what is the difference between getting your Masters in OT or your Phd?
