Since we're plugging community college more, I'd also like to add that quite a few community colleges offer bachelors degrees now! Many of these are a small fraction of the cost of a traditional 4 year school (even far cheaper than 4 year state schools from what I've seen).

I wish these were a thing when I got my Bachelors degree.

Here's an example of a Bachelor of Applied Science, Electrical Engineering Technology for less than $12,000 in tuition! (tack on another $2k for books I'd guess for 4 years), but $14k for a bachelors is damn cheap!

Search your state to see what schools near you offer these and in what programs:

I would still make sure to verify they are an accredited program. The bar is REALLY low but it is also a super easy filter.
