I just wanted to share an experience I had yesterday.
I have applied to two schools before. One for a trade and one for a degree. They were both not in any interests to me once I started pondering about the schools rep, the professionalism, and how dissapointed I would be after graduation.
I took some time to get my head together, stuck to the present job for five years and have now decided that I want to further my career so that I can live comfortably. As usual the school makes you feel that you are the most important person in the world, they want you right now, and they are willing to do anything to help you achieve your goals.
After all the preliminary BS, we get to that pertinant question. "And how will you pay for school?" So of course I was directed to the Financial Aid office where she basically told me that because I'm making a good amount of money now I would not be able to receive as much as a person who is un-employed or has a low salary. Then she tells me that I must pay $600 and change a month in order to go to school. With rent, bills, and food how the hell do they expect I do this?
I just don't understand this system. The more money you make the more problems you have.
