education questions

What would you guys recommend.
I'm already on my way toward earning a B.A of Science in Aviation Management w/ flight. I have looked at also getting my Masters in Air transportation management at ERAU because most of the courses overlap plus ERAU is relatively inexpensive for online courses. I thought of getting my M.B.A but most online schools are still pretty expensive for my pocket. I wish ERAU offered an M.B.A program but I'm not willing to spend over $500 per credit hour to get my M.B.A at an online school. I really would like to earn my second degree from the comfort of my home whether it be a masters in business or air transportation management. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Are you just starting all of this? A B.A. means 'bachelor of arts' and a B.S. is a 'bachelor of science'. Never heard of a 'B.A. of S.'. If this is all new, just focus on the Bachelor's for now. Then get out there, get real world work experience, and then worry about the MBA. A lot of my friends from high school spent a lot of time and money on a Master's with the assumption that it would guarantee a higher paying job and/or increased employability. This is not always the case. If you want to do it for yourself, well thats a different story. But remember that an MBA, no related experience or current job, and 75 cents won't even get you a cup of coffee.

Transfer to the University of (insert one of our 50 states here) and get a degree in either business or engineering. Fly on the side while enjoying a good education. After graduation decide to continue flying for fun or as a career. If you end up flying for fun, go on and get a masters in either business or the engineering field. If you still decide a career in flying is the thing then go for whatever flight school is the new hotness at the time.
