I got my BS Degree in Criminal Justice back in 2014 but have not been able to find a job in my field even with my degree. I am now concidering going back to school to persue a degree in forensic science but do I have to start all over or can I go for a Masters in Forensic Science?

Forensic science usually requires a pretty solid background in biology and chemistry, but I'm sure if you look for a college offering that degree you will find the prerequisites. What kind of job are you trying to get? Most people who get a BS in criminal justice become police officers

Take your transcript and talk to the graduate advisor of the forensic science department at the university where you are seeking admittance. I earned my bachelors in computer science from San Diego State and wanted to get a masters in geography from Northridge. (The same time I got the comp sci degree, I also earned a minor in geography.) CSUN made me take all the "extra" courses I would need to earn a bachelors in geography before they let me into the masters program.
