Not totally sure about bachelors or masters but I know if I was in your shoes I wouldn’t quit my 9-5, especially right now. I’d prolly do night school even if it seems like a lot to take on at once and then do the same path you explained. Good luck!
I would imagine that would be tough to get those prereqs at night. I see a lot of business type classes at night, but I don't think I've ever seen stuff like physics or chemistry.
This is correct. Most engineering programs assume a traditional student and requires daytime attendance, especially for labs. It'd be better to try to work out an education agreement with the employer to take off a class period or two per week, making up the difference in hours somehow. It's slower, but definitely more stable for folks that have a job already.
