BS vs Graduate degree
I'm currently graduating from community college and am in the process of transferring to a 4 year school to get my bachelors, but they said this when I was asking questions about my major.
Your major is listed as Childhood Ed. You can get your BS in it but we do not have a graduate degree in Childhood Ed. You can get a graduate degree in Special Ed or Literacy if you would like, which we do have. You still have plenty of time to figure that out.
Does anyone know what it would mean if I can't get a Graduate degree but I can get a BS? Because I will need my masters bc teachers need to be in New york state but I dont need to right away, I don't necessarily need it from this school, and im not 100% sure if thats what a graduate degree is.

The graduate degree is for the MS or MA (Masters degree - still Science or Art)
They're just saying that for your major you can only get the BS in their university
And that if you do your Masters in their university you would have to do Special Ed or Literacy - unless you decide to go ...... reply
BS is bachelor of science, there is also BA, Bachelor of Arts. Bachelor degree is a typical 4 year program. Anything after that is graduate degrees, such as masters or phd. I think they are saying there is no program for specifically childhood ed for a masters. reply
