Career Change to MLS

Hello Everyone, long time lurker of this subreddit but I’ve finally organized my thoughts enough to ask for advice now.

Long story short, I’m a first generation college grad who hates his career outlook, and would’ve actually chosen this field if I knew it existed as it’s an amalgamation of my interests. I have a bachelors in environmental studies and a minor biology, but the courses don’t translate well for program prereqs or as one of the sciences NY accepts for an alternate licensure pathway.

So the advice I’m looking for is, Do I go back to community college and get my CLT and go from there (thinking about the suny broome program)? Or do I take some prerequisites and try to do a post-bacc (I’m in NY and a lot of the online post-baccs such as Weber aren’t accepted)? Also if anyone knows of any scholarships or programs please let me know, I’ve exhausted a lot of FAFSA opportunities from my bachelors.

Signed, a stressed out first generation college grad who’s trying to make something of his life and enjoy his career.
