Well I have finally decided to go back to college. I have not been in school since 1994, back then my children were 3 and 4 and I was going through a nasty separation(Not divorce, just together 10 years and splitting up)and I was attending Clinton Community College with a major in Criminal Justice. I wanted to be a Probation Officer. Well needless to say he made it impossible for me to attend with dragging me to court every other day and doing anything he possibly could to take custody from me, which by the way never happened. I have had full custody of my children since the beginning of all this mess and they are now 16 and 17. Anyway I had straight A's but missed so much time they were not able to credit me for the courses, so I lost the A's, and was academically dismissed. I also lost all federal funding and student loans. The requirements to return...paying a full semester out of pocket which was not possible for me at the time being a single mother of 2 small children so I let it go..until now. I signed up for University of Phoenix which is all online courses with an accredited school. I am going to finish my degree in 20 months and finally go after that Probation and Parole title. So I am excited to finally be able to get back in school and finish this. Wish me luck! :-)
Orientation went well yesterday, everything set to go Monday.
