Yeah, if you want to know, I'll let you know.
I've gotten job offers in the range of $20-$25 an hour, but I'd much rather finish up the degree.

I read your first post, and I'm in that situation. It's not that bad, but it's similar. I believe it's the same for a lot of people I've met.
The one thing that I could recommend, you don't have to take it, but I've know folks get certificates for their fields, and work part time with them. At the same time finishing up their AAS with afternoon and night classes. This would take longer, but provides some relief financially in the meantime. Or maybe, you could maybe work 3-4 months full time during a summer, and full time student for two semesters. Again, they are just ideas.
Ultimately, you do want you want to do.

I wish I could give you some insight on the electrical engineering or engineering technician programs, but I'm not familiar with them. What I would do is to get a hold of a couple of professors that teach in those programs. They would know more than I do, and hopefully point you in the right direction.
