Hello,
I am a 29 year old woman who desperately wants to go back to school! I joined the U.S. Army straight out of high school, and after being honorably discharged, I began working in the veterinary field. I love my job, but I have been doing it now for almost 10 years, and there really isn't any more room for me to move up. I have my associates in Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice, but I don't see myself working in that field. Over the last couple of years, I have fiercely wanted to go back to school in order to finish my Bachelors degree. I have been accepted into a University, however, I am afraid that I will not be able to afford it.
I work full time and work pay check to pay check. I haven't been able to save money for it, so I will be relying on scholarships/grants/loans. A am a 4.0 student that works hard in order to keep that grade! I am shooting for a Bachelors in Exercise Science, with the hopes of being admitted into the Physical Therapy Doctorate program thereafter.
I need my life to change! I am taking control, and am not going to shy away from the difficult things that scare me (such as Chemistry). I am going to put my head down and plow through this in order to provide for myself and my family better!
