Interesting Grants and Loans situation

[SoloAJ]

I should make note...Here at ISU, getting an English Education BA and getting certified if you already have an English BA is identical. (other than a slip of paper-the 2nd BA).

I actually won't be in the College of Education. I would still be in the CoFA or whatever English is in. My major is still more aligned with English than it is with Education or the CoE. I just have to take C&I classes is all.

I really need to decide on this somewhat soon. I'm going to see the advisor at 3 and he can switch me to English Ed if I want, effectively blocking my degree and giving me funding.

But I really want to have that English BA just because that would make me more marketable right? "Hi, I have an English BA AND an English Ed BA." Basically shows I'm more educated in English that most English Ed people. Blah.

Is it worth $10,000? Probably not. I hate this decision.
