I would go ahead and pursue your Master’s. If you get your undergrad in say personal nutrition or anything close and decide to drop the Master’s program, you can still fall back on your B.S. and internship your way to an R.D. certification. I was going to jump into a M.S. in nutrition, but it’s hard to find a school that offers it where I live. So, I settled for exercise science. Hope this helps, feel free to email me, I can run through the whole process if you like.

Nutrition could be the way to go if you are going to work in a hospital. The higher you can go (the more schooling) the better job you can get in a hospital. I thought you might be interested in other areas besides nutrition though.
