Looking to get a degree in IT?
I was wondering how to go about doing this? I mean i come from South Africa, I have been living in USA for 4 years now and I want to get a solid education. I enjoy computers. I know nothing about credits or colleges and stuff like that. I want to get my bachelors in IT and then my masters after that. I dont however want to take 2 years learning English, History, Math, and that kind of stuff. My wife is enrolled in TCC and she is going for an associates degree in general studies and these are some of her subjects she has to take. I am not interested in History and i completely suck at Math. I am also unsure of what courses to take. Like web design? Programming (sounds very hard). I enjoy networking, troubleshooting, Software and a little hardware but im open to anything really. I would like to make lots of money with this as well. I mean if I have Masters Degree in IT, I should make a killing right? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

It sounds like you'll want a trade school like DeVry or ITT Tech where you learn only those classes needed to complete a certificate or associate's degree in a specific area, like tech support. If you go to a traditional college for a bachelor's, you are required to take general education classes in all subject areas to make you a more well-rounded educated person. IT covers many areas, but what you are describing what you want to do is tech support or web design. Do don't need a bachelor's or master's for that. Just take a couple of courses at a community college or a tech trade school, and you will be ready for a job. If you do pursue a tradition bachelor's and master's expect heavy work in a lot of science, math classes, and even business classes.
