In many states, you would need a bachelor's degree from an accredited college to be a probation officer. They don't specify what area the degree should be in. My BA is in History, and my MS is in Education.

Anything in criminal justice. Also take courses that deal with probation and juveniles. If I were you, I would get an AA degree in Criminal Justice from an online college.

I'm doing a degree in Criminology and thats the kind of thing i want to do when i finish, it's about having an understanding of why people commit crimes and try to get to the bottom of it, rather than directly look at punishing them, you need to be very open minded to do it, but think that comes with time of doing the course, you start to see things in a different light
