You might be able to set up your own business if you use a bit of creative thinking. I believe the needed term is "Think out of the box"...
A few examples: You could become a troubleshooter or overseer of educational systems in your city, your state, or in the United States in general. This could lead to state or federal contracts if done well. You could approach current administrators in any city or state, let them know you can appraise (for which you are paid) the existing system in the context of other systems based on the criteria of importance (and you can set up the survey criteria upon which you want to focus). Another possibility: Track the federal, state, and local dollars that come into the school systems you want to assess to see if these dollars are being wisely applied based on the educational goals. You could be a consultant, a change agent, an analyst, a problem-solver...let your imagination run free.

You can be a public School Superintendent, Director of Student Services, District School Administrator( not sure what their title is) . Those jobs pay around $200,000 to $500,000 depending on the county population or state level.
Private schools have their own superintendents and principals. Colleges and Universities have their own administrative offices as well.

Dean of students, provost, college administrator, dean of admission, admissions counselor, etc, What does it sound like? The administration of higher education institutions..
I have a friend who has a MEd In Higher Education Administration.. she works for a university, and she is basically in charge of all of the sororities/fraternities that have chapters on campus.

This is like spending $200,000 in a car and then asking, "What can I do with a car?" If this makes no sense it is because it does not. Your question follow that logic. The job you wish to attain determines the education and the required levels necessary. No one with a level head chases a degree and then asks what he, or she, could do in terms of employment. Kids interested in administration get a bachelor's degree in administration while being aware of what type of business to pursue that requires the degree. Good luck.
