I have heard this from more than one person. How much of the education would that pay is my question? I need to know this rather fast. If you can provide me with some info I would greatly appreciate it. :)

Johnathan - of course I'll wish you well, taken from someone who didn't go to college until she was 30. Yes, I quit my full time job and enrolled in college, full time, day classes. I worked part time on campus and counted my pennies for 2 years. Sigh, no degree though....I've had some setbacks. So I'm happy for you! Make your dream come true.

Thanks Garrett and Luis. :P Mary, Life gives us set backs and we do what we need to. If you wanna go back to school and you can go for it. I am 34 :oops: Sorry it's never too late. At any rate you'll always be top of the class to me :)

Aww thanks Johnathan. I know it's never too late to go back but now we're focusing on my 16 year old. She'll be in college in less than 2 years. Looks like I'll need to work soon if anything!

Yeah I have already submitted my FAFSA and I am looking into some things for scholarships from lots of other programs around the nation. I am hoping to get the AMS scholarship to get me into MSU. Then my seal of approval will be a piece of cake. :wink:
