You can be the housewife of a fine and wealthy patrician gentleman such as myself.

>not going to grad school
>expecting returns in the humanities without going to grad school

HAHAHA!

You can apply to a PhD program if you wanna work in literature eventually (publishing, teaching, editing, library, etc).

Or law school, business school, etc. Those kind of grad programs love literature majors.

But don't stop with a BA in English unless you like being a cashier or barista.

If you're a monolingual Anglophone then you can earn some nice cash in Asia teaching English. If you're at least bilingual then do some translation certificates (plus a CAT certificate of some kind) and look for a job as a translator (you'd probably have to settle for freelance, though).

But as >>7532021 said, by all means continue your education, if you are able to.

You could teach middle school English without an MA, but have fun with reading Catcher in the Rye four times per semester for the rest of your life if you do that.

you're gonna have difficulties working for a publisher or editor, then.

Maybe at a shit inner-city public school. All the good English teachers I had in high school were MAs.

>>7532055
MA it is then. Would you recommend teaching and getting experience while working towards an MA or would it be wise to go straight from BA to MA without any teaching experience?

>>7532063
Either way. Some MA programs will have teaching programs to get you experience as a part of it. Some MA programs are part-time, and you can also teach part-time. Otherwise you can always give teaching a try and postpone the MA, or just to a full-time MA and get better job offers when you're done. If you wanna teach for high school, the job market is totally decent these days.
