I've seen people mention on other threads that its not worth it due to the cost, but I can use a terminal through my university so that isn't a factor. I am a freshman finance major, but I won't be able to take those type of finance courses for a while (at least a year), but I still want to learn more about the markets. Is the Bloomberg Cert the best way to go about that or should I utilize a different resource?

This happened years ago so I may be wrong, but Bloomberg cert is free if your school has the student subscriptions. I took it, or some sort of bloomberg course on the terminal at school. It covered several different topics and how to use the terminal to complete different tasks.
Do you think it was the best use of you time?
