Well after 15 years I finally enrolled today at Barry University to finally get my undergraduate degree with the intention of going to Law School (F.I.U). I start in March and it is EXPENSIVE so I am taking collections.:D I can't wait to say goodbye to Law Enforcement...even if it takes another 5 years .

Why are you deciding to return to college? Just want something new? Or are you looking at the gains of it in terms of finances and what you'll be able to do with a degree?Lovin that music year after year.

Well...I don't like law enforcement but I do like Law. I think it would be a pretty rewarding and lucrative transition. I have been wanting to do something else for a while but the money I make has kept me here. It's a great amount I make with only a high school diploma ( some college) so I am fixing that and broadening my horizons.Sharp Elite 70

You might find it easier to pay for all that school if you'd stop and enjoy the gear you own instead of trying to chase the tail of a dragon. Good luckCTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

Does the PD offer tuition reimbursement?
A lot of times, you can go to school with little/no out of pocket other than books.

They pay for half and there are some Florida grants available so I may end up paying about $100.00 per credit without books.Sharp Elite 70

Do it girl! Don't let $$$ hold you back. Look at it as an investment in your future.
Back in 2002, I took out a loan for $8500.00 to go to a tech school for all of the Microsoft MCSE stuff. Thats a mere nothing compared to how it's paid off.

That's probably one of the best decisions anyone can make; it is never too late to get education and a degree.
And...you'll see that those five years will fly!!!
Good luck, and congrats._________________________________________________

So what happened to Interior Design? When did you make the switch to Law? I find that very interesting, since we have similar backgrounds... I've always wondered about Law, but never pursued it.
How did you decide which school to attend? Spare some details?Honoured to be, an original SOPA founding member

I figure if I do well I can afford to do interior design on my on enough to satisfy my creative side. I am just trying to stay practical as well. I have tremendous job security now and I want to keep some of that.
I decided on Barry because they give me credit toward my LE cert., academy classes and work experience. That's about 50- credits (ish). Add that to my previous college and I will already have almost 80 credits with only 40 needed to go for my Bachelors.Sharp Elite 70
