You don't need a degree.  All you have to do is become a police officer and complete whatever training that department requires to join the SWAT team.\n\nHowever, a better question would be: "Why would I want to join the SWAT team?"\n\nThe police in the United States were formed originally to be a civillian law enforcement agency that would enforce the law without using military tactics.\n\nThe SWAT teams do not fit this description.  They use military training and gear, and they regularly serve legally questionable "no knock" warrants.\n\nWhen the first SWAT team was organized in Los Angeles, there was a good bit of controvercy surrounding the legality of it.  Attitudes have cooled since then and I doubt that you would find many people today who would deny that they are necessary, but they still violate the principle of a non-military police force.

You should join the Air Force ROTC.  They will let you finish college and they will pay your tuition.  Then, you are obligated to 4 years in the Air Force as an officer.

You could consult the college catelogue. They can tell you what they require and what they don't. \n\nYour best source of correct information is to go straight to the source rather than asking a bunch of 13 year olds who are bored in study hall.

Sorry but I have to agree with your folks. I worked in a technical recruiting firm for 6 years. Every employer wants a 4 year degree. You could go to the tech school but will have less of a chance at getting the better paying jobs, and more difficulty getting hired. Better to get the degree now than find out you need it after the tech school. Best of luck

Learn the computer.  As a System and Network admin for my company there is only one way to get in with me.  Have a brain cell working and be confident.  Work as an intern and work for free.  Soak in all the knowledge you can.  Get 2 or 3 computers even if they are crap and network them so you can say you did it at home.  Play around with them learn and more than what the teachers are giving you.  You’re in school for computer that means you have access to pirated material learn the OS and the Server OS.  I just terminated a person who had a degree but I don't know how she got it because she did not know a thing.  I want someone is not afraid to mess up its part of the game.  Get in with help desk and work your way up the latter take chances and get with your school and see if they can help you out.  Feel free to contact me if you like. If your going to a technical school such as DeVry then they should have something for you.  If your going to a real Universaty then make sure you get your BS in computers.

You need a high school diploma, GED, or equivalent to join the Army.  Maybe the recruiter didn't understand what you were asking.  If a 10th grade education in Germany is the same as a 12th grade education in the U.S., you should be good to go.

You should have a bachelor's of science degree-preferrably in education/counseling and depending on the state/school, some may wish you to have your masters degree and/or certification. This can take anywhere from 3-? years....depending on how much of a course load you take each semester and how little partying you do.Look on the State's website for employment, go to the local School Board, or register with the Job Service( Employment Office) in your local area-they'll send you job info/openings that match your profile...average salary-depends on the state you're in...$30,000-$59,000 per year/depending on your qualifications and time/service.

Some advice would b if u wanna go to a Tech school, check it out first b4 joining... make sure it will help u better urself, plus some Tech schools are scams.. so b careful, they r shorter to finish but might cost more depending on what u take up.... or u could try a community college which u won't go wrong.... they issue out short term certificates, certificates or associate degrees... To get a certifcate usually take 1 year but thats only if u have ur general requirements out the way....... I would go to a community college if I were u.... but do whatever might make u happy...

An Associates Degree (in the Arts, Sciences, Fine Arts) takes two years.  Usually only junior/community colleges offer it as a degree.\n\nYou can also pick up professional certifications (IT networking, medical technician, electrician) from vocational schools or community colleges in 1-2 years usually.\n\nIf the job you want requires a Bachelor's though, you're probably going to have to get it one way or the other (online courses or evening from an accredited university might be the way to go).  Co-op's are available at a number of corporations so you can complete your studies over time and work with them in the interim.

Ok I am to assume that you have already joined...so with that in mind do you already have an MOS assigned? or job? If not make sure the recruiter is aware of your primary int erst and get EVERYTHING put in your contract!!! The recruiter will promise you the world, but when you get to that first duty station or even school, if it isn't in your contract you got screwed! Also have a game plan. The military will pay for college at 100% now there are many ways to do that either attending school before actual service, during  or after by using the GI bill. I suggest before or during so that you actually have a place to eat and sleep while attending otherwise after you might already be married and with child and car pmts, etc and it will be too hard to focus on school when you need income.... also check with your education office as soon as you check in get knowledge of your benefits, because they won't offer unless you ask...

Go talk to a recruiter and see what options you have.  Just be prepared that recruiters are trying to make quotas and will say lots of things to get you to join.  Make sure this is something you really want to do, it's not like a job you can just quit.  The Army can get you off to a good future, unless you get killed in action.  There is the GI Bill, and you can take classes while you are in the Army, tuition is often cheaper and often times it's waved, and there are several colleges that offer classes on-line.  You won't get rich in the Army, but you can gain a lot of experience and maturity.  Think hard of what you might like to do.  Also, take the ASVAB and see what MOS (job) you can go into, the higher your score the more choices you will have, so it wouldn't hurt to buy a study guide, there are lots of them out there, like ASVAB for Dummies.  (You will have to take the ASVAB anyway to join the Army.)

You get paid while you're serving and you do get a sign on bonus and financial ops to go to college. Actually you need to get your GED prior to enlisting and you can go to any community college and find out if they have a GED class you can take and find out from them when the next class begins and plan for your enlistment after you complete the GED. The military doesnt take anyone without a high school diploma since the rules and regulations have changed over the last 30 something years. Since the war is going they're using reservists so if you want to stay home and be in the military go in as a regular in the military there are far more benefits you can have and there's more ops to travel to other places too since reservists are the ones getting called right now. Check out your options right now, but get your GED first before you enlist. It's easier that way so it's less stress on you later on in case they changed the rules to save yourself from taking two steps back instead of going forward.

A trade school will teach you a specific trade and get you into the work force quite quickly if you pick a trade that is in demand and if you have an aptitude for it. Check the trade schools placement rates to determine if there is a demand for their graduates. An associates degree is good if you're interested in continuing on to get a Bachelors or Graduate degree. It is also good in certain fields, such as electronics tech and other professional workplace technicians such as medical. Either one, make sure you're serious about what kind of work you want to do, because it's just a waste of time and money if you're not ready to put your full effort into it.

Don't be discouraged! You can go to your counselor and get enrolled for next semester to complete the units you need to graduate. If you are totally against that idea, G.E.D is an option. Most employers require you to have at the least a high school diploma, or a G.E.D.  You've come so far, don't give up!
