Tyler has decided that he wants to be an Actuary. We've been talking a lot at our house about possible future careers. He's been pretty undecided until now. There are many things that we have considered...mostly in the science, math, or business categories. When he stumbled into this video and other information on this website, he was completely sold. His eyes lit up and he jabbered on for an hour to tell me all the reasons why he is perfectly cut out to be an actuary...and I have to say, I believe him! Anyway, if you are interested, read up on Actuarial Science--or better yet, wait till the next time you see Tyler. He can tell you all about it!
We still have visits scheduled at Missouri S&T, and at Missouri State. Like Mizzou, these schools offer mathematics degrees with emphasis in Actuarial Science. I've added UCM (formerly known at CMSU) to the list of schools to visit. This is not a school Tyler wants to attend (doesn't meet his "away from home" criteria)...but it is one of only about 35 schools in the country with an actual Actuarial Science degree, and it's only 30 minutes from home. It would be irresponsible not to at least look, right?

I'd definitely check UCM out. At 30 minutes away, he's technically not far enough away that you couldn't drop in un-announced, but you wouldn't do that anyway so what's the problem? :-)
