You could just use your credits that you gained with your history degree to get a different degree. You probably have 2 years banked toward whatever you'd want to do.

But i mean it sounds like you rather do whatever you want to do so yeah go do that. You'll probably fail because it's really hard to make it in but yeah go for it!
This is basically what I did. I got an anthropology degree with my full scholarship and worked in cultural resources management for 6 months--long enough to realize my mistake and to decide to change careers. I went back to school and took 2 years to get a degree in physics, then another year in a professional healthcare related program. Now I have a rewarding career which lets me help people in a direct way, is very lucrative, and only requires a 40-hour work week. It was definitely worth going back to school.
