Hi Guys,
I've considered the current/future job market, and also weighted what I like to do, and came to this conclusion:
I'm going after a College Degree...
I'm not sure yet if Computer Engineering or Computer Networking... I'll start with an Associate's.. and then BS in the future..

Well, I want to learn about networking.. and get certifications, HOWEVER, I don't want to waste money with something that I'll acquire with my Associate's Degree...

What do you recommend me?? I was thinking about getting the CCNA or Network+ first, but.. It seems that if you finish the Computer Networking course, you AUTOMATICALLY get a CCNA certification.. so it wouldn't make sense to get the Cert and then get it again w/ Degree...

What do you think??
Recommendations??
