technology computer degrees, programs, certifications

[Really Useful Matt]

Looks like you Americans are having a hard time over there - we've currently got quite a big demand for IT Guys. Perhaps you should migrate to the better country, to the better jobs and money. :P

I'm looking into the computer science field as well-still undecided. I surfed around online and saw a really cool program from American Sentinel University American Sentinel University

Sounds like it could offer a lot of convenience and flexibility with my schedule. They also have some cool tech degrees (IT, IS, GIS, HSM, etc.) They even offer a CS specialization in game programming, which I thought was pretty cool!

Any thoughts??

It's not really anybody's place to answer these questions for you. You must decide what it is you want to do with your life and where you want to go before you decide how you're going to get there.

Should you get certified in Java?

That question is easily answered with another question: do you want a career in Java programming?

It sounds like you're in it for the money rather than the experience. I suggest you decide what it is you really want before making any life altering career choices.
