You can't succeed without brain stimulation. Your body needs exercise to stay healthy and fit and so does your brain. We have children who are being educated in the military (hefty college GI bill) and in a traditional college setting. Three daughters are still in high school. We have their graduations for the next 3 years.
To continue education, they will work, save, go to in state schools, get aid or scholarships or consider the military option. Student loans will be avoided, because they can financially cripple our children when they graduate college.
Education and work experience are critical to a successful career. Whether it is traditional college, specialty school, the military or online classes, it is important to keep on learning.
My husband and I attend seminars and take online courses. I have recently tackled 6 college online courses while raising a family and working full time to keep the brain conditioned.
Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA www.odu.edu/ offers a four year degree online. Ed2go www.ed2go.com/ offers a variety of online credit and non-credit courses. Both programs are accommodating to a busy lifestyle.
Great sites for college and future planning include: "Petterson Guide" www.petersons.com/ and "CollegeBoard" www.collegeboard.org/
Today, there is little excuse not to continue your education, because there are so many options available.
