I have returned to school before. My husband did a couple of years ago and I'm very proud of him for that. I hope to return again at some point to further my education. I am 27, so I have a little time to do that. We're wanting to start a family though, so I'm not sure where all of that will fall in, but I'm sure it will :)

Yes I did- I went back to school back in 2000- 10 years after I graduated high school- I had a degree in Criminal Justice- and went back in 2000 for accounting- I got that degree in 2001- and went back in 2004- part time to finish my bachelors degree in Finance- Man it was hard- I'm still doing it off and on- Geneseo, NY- I also work full time and am a full time mom! It is hard going back when you are older- but by then you know that you have to do well in college- grades are important- at least in my field- My GPA is what landed me this job- Priorities change when you're in college as an adult- It was great still- but hard! Good luck if you go back!

It is always great to go back to school. I did it, I loved it and have no regrets. I dont think that we ever learn so much that we dont have room for more..
great luck to you!

I do part time school, it's all I have time for. And online classes only. I am working towards a degree in elementary education. It takes forever because I dont want to get any loans and I have to pay for classes and books myself.
Your job sounds fun though. I encourage you to return to school! I love school :)

I worked as a Teacher-Aide for Special Education for seven years, during that time I completed my AA in Elementary Education with an "emphasis" & "certification" in Special Education. Right now I am going back to school in hopes of recieving my B.A. in Juvenile Criminal Justice. at times it has been a real struggle balancing school with being a single mom, but I am determined to stick it out! Afterall, I need to accomplish this if I want to provide a better life for my children.
