My greatest frustration.

I really wanted to finish college. But how? I already have 4 kids and I'm working. With my job, I want a career growth but it seems that educational background is one of the most important attributes on gaining a higher position. Not for me. Unluckily, I did not finish college which I regret much. I am hoping still, that someday I could have a chance to continue my studies so I can aim for a higher position at work. :(

Do you live near any universities or community colleges? Night classes and online classes sound like they would work for a person in your situation. Many of the community colleges offer degrees that can be completed mostly online.

Oh my That is also my dream to finish my college. That is why I am trying so hard to finish it even though I feel so guilty about it, because my mom is the one spending money for my enrollment fee. I want to be the one who pays for my enrollment fee, but I can't do that because I do not have any money and working online is not enough for me to earn a decent income

I am doing an online University and love it. I am attending Walden University and it is an accredited school so most companies will recognize the school. I had a classmate who is in the military and just gave birth to a new baby and she was able to keep up with her studies. Have you looked into the colleges and universities in your area to see if they offer online courses for the program you want to major in? Online classes seem to be ideal for you.

Regrets do always come after. Anyways, I think there are a lot of universities offering some weekend class or schedules that will be appropriate for your working hours. You might also take time talking to your husband(if your a she) that you wanted to go to school and finish college. Ask him to take further responsibilities in your family while you study. I think he will understand that.
