Now that they are grown up and independent, I have the freedom to go to school. Everything I see is for young people going from high school to college.
Many schools have special arrangements for non-traditional age learners.
Some of these include counseling and support for all the academic and social concerns of older learners. Once you map out a geographical plan and identify a list of academically suitable schools, you can start inquiring which schools accommodate older learners. Statistics have shown that older learners do much better academically than students of traditional age. If you are nervous about undertaking a degree program, take one course at a time for a while until you see what you like. Some schools even offer degree credits for life experience, a system which expedites the whole process of acquiring your degree.
