Forestry falls under the larger professional heading of "Recreation Workers." According to one report, full time entry-level recreation workers can expect a starting salary of approximately $14,150. In terms of age and experience level, as of 2009 3.5% of all recreation workers have a master's degree, 12.9% have a bachelor's degree, 10.4% have an associate degree, and 23.3% have some college but no degree. 28.8% have a high school diploma or equivalent, so it's a good idea to at least finish high school or earn a GED before embarking on this career.

it depends on the closeness of the degrees. the difference between a soils degree and a forestry degree was 23 credits in my case. another 17 credits got my land use planning degree. i still need about 100 credits for a business degree
