I dropped out of college to move to England with DH. Well, I just got word that I've been readmitted! I start back in August.
GAH! Here's to being a 26 year old undergrad. rofl. I have to admit. Im terrified.
-
Good luck!
-
@loveisstrange: Yay!
I went back to school at 25 to finish my undergrad! Professors loved me because I cared so much/tried so hard. One student called me "grandma" when she found out I was 25 though! lol
Good luck! Can't wait to hear about juggling school and parenthood. I need to start my master's soon and that scares the heck out of me! -
Don't be! That's so exciting! How long will you be in school for?
You'd probably end up befriending the TA's & professors and maybe they'll be partial to you
-
Hooray!!!!!!!
-
Good luck! I can't wait to hear more about it!
@cmomma17: I'm afraid of that if I go back to school. I'm thinking about pursuing a completely different undergrad degree, and I'm almost 30.
-
Congrats on being readmitted!
-
@loveisstrange: Congrats! I went back when I was 26, too. I was 8 months pregnant when I waddled across the stage to graduate
-
Awesome!
-
congrats! I think its awesome you are going back. I think I would have been a much better student at 26 than I was at 18-22!
-
@avivoca: well I just turned 32! I was going to do just one class at a time ..... so scary though! Maybe we can talk each other into it!
-
@loveisstrange: yay! Go you! We are so in the same boat, in more ways than one! I'm so happy for you and if you ever need to vent about school and the balance- I'm here for you! It's such a challenge but I am finding it so rewarding.. Even though I won't graduate until spring 2017!
-
I'm starting online classes next month to get my Bachelor's and I'm 26. I'll be 30 when I graduate! I haven't even told many people because I feel so old to be doing this!
-
Oh my gosh, good for you!!!!! Good luck!!!
-
@snowjewelz: 2 semesters to finish my original (and quite useless) bachelor's.
I should be preparing to graduate this time next year! After that, it's going to take 2-3 years to finish a BSN, which is what I want to do. @psw27: I will absolutely be a better student this time. lol. I was a total slacker the first time around.
@Mrs. Pen: Yeah. It's looking like I'll be graduating around the same time. lol. Go us! We can do this!
Im so glad to hear Im not the only one who went back at my age.
-
Yay! Congratulations!
-
That's awesome, good luck!!!
I'd like to go back to school someday...if I could ever figure out what I want to be when I grow up, lol!
-
Congrats!!
-
Congratulations!
I'll say, as a TA, it's always so refreshing to have students who *want* to be in class. I'm sure you'll be awesome!
-
Yay! Congrats! Someday I'll be the even older than you lady at school
-
@LovelyPlum: Haha. You would have hated me the first time around, then. lol
-
Congrats!
I work in higher ed and my mature students are my favourite students. They're way more engaged and invested in their studies
-
I love college and could be a student forever. Congrats! What will you be studying??
-
@Happygal: Theatre and then Nursing.
-
That's great! Good luck!!
-
I think that's great that you are continuing your education. Good luck!
-
Good luck! I find that the "mature" students usually do better.
-
Yay, that's great!
-
Yay! Congrats!
-
yay! good luck!
