You are prepared and will do great! The end result will be worth it and you will be able to move up in your career, make more, and pay back any loans--not to mention the example for your kids.
Another idea -- at least down here, there are various professional organizations that sponsor students directly, such as Business Women of America, etc. They will consider more mature ladies like us, as they know we are already working and will stick with it. They feel their money is actually going to be used to benefit someone's immediate future.
So many others start but do not finish this journey and you have proven that you can do it! They will invest in your future.
It is not much but it will help offset some of the expense. Usually each one is about $1500 to $2500, but would of course depend upon the specific organization.
Start rattling those bushes and see what money will fall out. hilarious
