My first major was Sociology. I loved the study of social problems and sociology provided me with crucial knowledge of systemic barriers. I focused on Power in everyday life, as well as health and health care systems. These became extremely valuable when working as a community mental health counsellor - case manager. I’m currently studying social work while working full-time. I would not be as good at my job supporting clients through these systems had it not been for my sociology studies. Here is a list of careers my old Soci classmates/friends got into after uni. - Teacher - Lawyer - English Teacher in Mexico - Mental Health counsellor - Researcher in suicidology - Medical Sociology - researching benefits of support animals for veterans - Homeless Shelter and Transitional Housing Manager

If you want to be on the professional side of things get an undergrad in psychology, then iron out a more specific career path and be prepared to get a masters in that field. There are degrees in social work but they are more limiting at the undergraduate level, whereas a psychology leaves a lot more doors open when applying to a graduate program. A BA in sociology will only allow you to get a job as the receptionist. Not trying to belittle that position, but it's the truth and probably not what you have in mind.

I'm now working on my BA in Sociology with a plan to earn my Master's in Social Work. In my situation getting my bachelor's in Sociology was a faster track as I came from a nursing track and decided SW is a better route for me; after switching last minute, I'm able to get my bachelor's within this year (with full time semesters plus summer school), whereas a SW degree would've taken more classes plus having to apply as it's a more competitive program. And my BSN would've been another 2 years as well [in the program]. This way I'll have my Master's in SW within 3 years as long as all goes well. So yes, a BA in Sociology isn't going to give someone a plan for a 6 figure career, that's silly 🤣 but it can be a good undergrad backbone.

Read my BIG 5: 1. Psychological B.S. or B.A. is useless without graduate school. Same thing for sociology and many other courses. 2. Persevering goes a long way. Never give up! Keep holding on. 3. Career counselors know nothing about your future. Going to see them is a waste of time. They will only confuse you more. 4. Make sure that your major lines up with your minor. In other words, do not major in sociology and minor in physical education. No relationship there. Ok? If you decide on sociology, for example, do this instead: A. Select social work as a minor because both programs are related. B. You must go beyond the B.A. or B.S. level. Otherwise, your degree is useless. The college knows this fact very well. Students are dollar bills with arms and legs. College is a business. They don't care about you and your future endeavors at all. 5. Again, major in something that is in demand. Honestly, teaching, medical field, computers, math, physics to name a few are always in great demand. I hope this helps you.

After this Summer, I have four classes left before I can get my Associates degree, and I’m planning on getting my Associates next year at either the end of Spring or end of the Summer of next year, and so I won’t be getting my Bachelors until I’m like 34 years old, almost 35.

Unless I can take two classes in the summer as well, or one in the summer and three per both the Spring and the Fall, each year, I won’t be able to get my Masters any sooner than that. I won’t get my Masters any sooner than when I’m 39, and I won’t be able to begin making lots of money enough to afford a home until then.

Please know that I only say this to you as a former communications & conference director of a national, non-profit org. that I worked incredibly hard for for ten years. I know how hard it is to do the heavy-lifting of planning an annual event at all levels across an entire organization and to keep it & everyone in it feeling part of a “whole” that’s going in one direction, let alone the right direction. So making last-minute typos or mistakes in the program or in the event’s press release in the big picture aren’t nearly the big deal they feel they are during the actual event.
