Help me, I want career guidance, please help me ...?
I was a student of Bachelors in Software Engineering back home, its obvious that my majors were Software Engineering. I moved here in USA about 6 months ago. I'm working overnights at Kohl's and make around $230 ($8.75/hour) a week which is barley enough to survive. Now I want to finish my degree from here but the hard part is, to be honest, I'm a below average student. I completed most of my courses with C, C+. I've completed all required subjects (Total of 138+ credit Hrs) but I couldn't complete the Degree Project (6 Credit Hrs) before coming here. I'm confused now, I want to finish my degree but don't know what to do, where to go. Currently I'm living in Rochester, MN. I want to complete some kind of certification to get a better job, one option is to complete a nursing diploma (3 months 6 credit hrs) so I would be able to apply in Mayo clinic to get a job that pays around $14/hour, but its totally different than my educational background. There is a huge IBM facility in Rochester "The Big Blue" but of course they require some degree. So please suggest me any short course that I can do and get a better job and eventually to able complete my SW Eng degree. I'm so much disappointed disheartened and depressed with my current life that you have NO IDEA, I want to be something but cant see a way. I was not serious about my studies in past that's why end up having pathetic CGPA. Please consider my situation, I want to change the course of my life. Take three minutes from your busy life and suggest me something. Tell me about some educational forums, web sites, short courses (like CCNA or MCSE I don't know if they worth having.) whatever you think is good for me. Thank You.

You apply to attend a university. You'll be a transfer student. You should complete your software engineering degree. It will take less time. But it will probably be easire for you to get a nursing job. But if you complete a nursing degree it will take longer to complete. Contact a couple of colleges/universities in your area. You can also apply to the University of Phoenix. They have online classes.
