Does an associates degree in construction management have significant value in life or do I need a bachelors?


Question:
I am currently a freshman at UIC in the Architectural program which is not accredited, and i need to do 2yr. masters to be elligible for a license. Reason i am going this route is cause tuition is less and it is not as difficult as other schools. Obvious cons are number of years= 4yr. B.A. + 2yr. MS. On top of all this Architecture does not seem too promissing in finantial returns. So I thought I woud do a bachelors in Construction management. Problem is i am not able to find any university in Chicago offering it, I only find 2yr. colleges offering a certificate or associates. My question is now, is it worth it having a certificate Cons. Man. with a B.A. in Architecture or by itself? and which school in the Chicagoland area is good to go to? Any other suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

Answer:
If your goal is to be a licensed architect then you should spend your time and money to get a bachelor degree in Architecture first and not fooling yourself in construction management.
If your goal is at financial return, then don't be a licensed architect.
I think your problem is you really don't known what you want do with your life.
Yes, I am a licensed architect in Illinois.
