Anyone else started school at 33 years old? I hope I'm not alone....
#13
I was 32 last year when I started pursuing my degree! Others on here will have much more solid information and advice for you, but I just wanted to chime in and say do NOT think you're too old or that it's not possible to earn your degree. Sure, I wish I had started and finished my degree wayyyy earlier and I was terrified at the thought of going back to school, but seriously don't let those kind of thoughts keep you from pursuing it if you know it's what you want and need to do. It's totally possible.

One of my favorite quotes:
Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.
Earl Nightingale

Go for it! We will all be cheering for you!
