No problem at all. I don't think all that many go straight through secondary, undergrad, grad, phd .. who could afford it? There is a real mix of ages especially grad & up.
Never too old, just take it slow at first until you get used to it then go for it!!!
I found that going back to college when I was older was MUCH easier than when I was younger. You are more mature and realize the importance of education.
oh yeah. and its worth it. if you dont do it now, you might wish that you did later on. always pursue the things you love!
never to old to seek enlightenment. =) my mom is going to college and im SO proud of her. you should proud of yourself!
It's both normal and smart! My father started as a freshman at age 33 and finished with a PhD degree at age 41. I went back to school, also at age 33, and got my PhD at age 38. The degree was necessary to do what I love to do. Sixteen years later, I'm enjoying every minute of my work. It was well worth it.
shhh......I am 34yrs old and still going back for more. My classmate is in his 40s and still in the same class with me....
