I really want to go back to college and finish school but I feel that I'm too old.. is there an age limit to finish school? I've been working as a call center agent before I became a mom and it pays well but it's not a very stable industry.. So I was thinking if I have a degree a can get a better chance to landing a stable job that can support me and my baby.. what do you guys thing is it to late to go back to school?

It's never too late @Iamsopia . I got a criminal justice degree at age 58 and a truck driving license at 56.

Its never too late to go back to school, when I was in college there was a 80 year old lady taking the same sociology class and that was in 1998!

You're never too old. Especially if you want to learn.

I don't think there is late any time. it just takes mindset change.

Part me want to go back to school, but I haven't really been that passionate and I don't have the money for the tuition since it's a lot higher now than before.

Better late than never... It might be difficult in the start but as people come to know about your enthusiasm and will power they shall begin to respect you... No everyone has the courage to do so..

It's never too late to study. When I was still in law school, I had classmates in their 40s, 50s and 60s. We didn't mind having them as classmates.
