Hello,

My name is Tj and I am currently pursing my bachelors of science in Justice Administration and minoring in Digital Forensics. I have been a law enforcement explorer for the past for years and plan to stay in the program when I turn 21. I will have eight years as an explorer once I complete my degree. I have a clean record and I have never been give a traffic infraction.

I would also like to know if it matters where you obtain your college degree. I know the degree needs to be accredited and my will be regionally accredited.

Thank you.
Tj

I have been an explorer for 4 years.

You should be able to get a job.

If you score high on the civil service test you will have a good chance of being hired:)  With some departments that is all that matters. Except for politics:) 

So, basically a degree can help you in the future right? The degree can be from any college as long as it is regionally accredited right?

Thanks for posting I just want to make sure if the name of the college plays a factor in the hiring process.

If the college you're going to is regionally accredited the what college you get your degree from won't matter to become a police officer:) 

     Hey my smiley faces aren't working!!!!

OK. Now they are! 

I think you'll have a good chance. Keep doing what you're doing. College is the way to go. Keep a good attitude.

As good a chance as anyone!
