I have been working at this place for about a year. I started as customer service and then they moved me to programming after they found out I am a computer science major. I haven't really been looking for jobs elsewhere due to being busy with school and work. Is this a good amount? I live in the midwest.

Im sorry. Im going to have to ask for you to be slightly more vague in your question in order to answer it.....
Sheesh people....
What are you making now? What job description will you have after graduating? What is the going rate for jobs in your area in that industry??? $65K is a good start - unless that job description normally gets paid $100K per year... So, time to do some research!!

Lucky you! I'd say take the offer and run. Especially if you're in the midwest where they think $8 an hour is fit for a king.

considering the fact that only 2% of America makes over $50K a year, I'd say it was a very good offer. Just be cautious not to let the money burn too many holes in your pockets. My advice: Invest Invest Invest

For the midwest region? That is a good starting salary.

that's pretty good pay just starting out. i'd take it. and you're in the midwest so living expenses aren't ridiculously high so you'll do more than fine on that amount.
congrats on the job btw!

Really good starting salary, but dont take a job purely for money. You are young and you want to start out right, on a career path that fulfills you.

Its not bad but if your a college graduate then its definetally not what you could be getting. I say keep the job until something better comes along

Unless you're being offered a job designing the software at a church, I'm not sure what this question is doing in this category.
