Anybody on here studied this? I swear I'm having a midlife crisis at 21. Ok I'm a pro diver but that isn't something that is well paid, so I would like to put it into use into something like Marine Biology. So now I'm debating on going to University :) any advice would be great, I don't even know what I'm looking for really, I'm so indecisive :-/

I have a friend who is (or was last I knew) studying for this. One of the biggest things is you should probably decide what type of marine life you want to do (ocean, swamp, river/lake, etc.) and then apply to a school where that can easily be a part of your curriculum. Here in Nebraska you probably wouldn't want to go to school for marine biology if later on you really, really wanted to focus on coral reefs, you know? Haha. But other than that, talk to an advisor! :).
