[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 706931, member: 1233"] If he goes back, do NOT NOT NOT let him fall victim to a for profit college. They end up being MUCH more expensive than a state university and most of the degrees are NOT worth the paper they are printed on. They are a true racket. Let him go through a state university and get a real degree from real instructors. My hubby taught at one of those for profit colleges for a short time when he was desperate for a job. Half of the other 'instructors' were barely qualified to work a fast food job. My husband was offered jobs teaching in any department he wanted because he had a graduate degree. His degree was in computers but he could have taught English if he wanted according to these people, or Nursing even. He was appalled and even more appalled as the term went on. You are not really given an education at these schools for the most part and you are charged WAY more than you should be. I am sorry that it is so hard to balance finding good medical care and being able to work. I hate that about our society. I really think other countries handle this much better. [/QUOTE]
