I am thinking about going back to college, or going to grad school, any advice?

I graduated college 5 years ago, and haven't found a job with my current degree. So I am faced with this conondrum, do I go back to college and get a degree in a different field, or do I go to grad-school to get a masters degree? The problem is I'm not employed, and money is tight in my family as my mother just went on disability. So I will need loans, grants, and other forms of asistance to do either. What would you recommend as my best course of action?

@Razoreye001 huh. that sounds like a good degree to have. im surprised you cant find a job. i don t think a masters would improve your chances that much in that field. what other degrees are you considering?

@Penny Criminal justice, psychology, or some kind of government work degree.

@Razoreye001 not too much you can do with a ba in psychology, though maybe you could find a job in advertising. idk really. im probably the last person who would know how to find a good job lol. criminal justice doesnt sound that good to me. i'm thinking about going back to school to try and be a social worker.
